Default interesting moment yesterday on final

That aircraft in the pattern have the right of way. You know, the part you
snipped.


AC 90-66A does not indicate that aircraft in the pattern have the
right-of-way over aircraft on final.



IFR fixes provide zero informaiton to a VFR pilot.


Is bad information better than no information?



Only because you wish to ignore the FAA recommendations in AC 90-66.
Aircraft entering on a straight in approach should not disrupt traffic in
the pattern.


I'll ignore all recommendations that are discourteous , reduce safety, and
are inconsistent with the FARs. Everybody should.
