Default Takeoff/Landing same direction?

I was just curious if the folks that supported the landing and takeoff
in the same direction had thought about how long this "rule" was good
for! I suspect it might be 10 minutes, say, rather than at the end of a
long flight. A fun argument, I bet, and funner with each adult beverage
that leaves the cooler. I wish I'd been there - at least some flying
went on.


Oh, I got it now. Yeah, it was a fun discussion at the clubhouse - we
were having a cookout so there was adult beverage consumption going on!

Actually the flying that day was pretty good, lots of Cu's and some
nice cloudstreets. We've got a couple of flights posted on OLC for
that day - I managed to beat my buddies back in AZ which is a bit
amazing!
