Default interesting moment yesterday on final

I don't know, I'm just posting the info Steven was looking for and how it
reads to me. I actually found this by accident while doing an unrelated
Goggle search.


Steven wasn't looking for the info, Steven has all the info.


Or just thinks he does.




The way I read it you can still do most any kind of approach as long as
you don't disrupt normal traffic in the pattern. But the way I read it,
with
regards to right of way, traffic using the rectangular pattern listed in
the AIM is said to be favored.


Instead of concentrating on material that is not regulatory you might
consider examining some material that is. I suggest FARs 91.113 and
91.126 for starters.


Nothing in either of those FARs indicates you can describe "final" as being
farther away from the airport than the end of "base leg".
