Being from Texas, and flying mostly in the Midwest and South, I have never
asked for nor had any need for a contact approach. If I see the runway I
tell the controller, and he gives me a visual. In fact, I can't remember
ever hearing a contact approach requested around here.
Then, I whenever I fly into the Northeast and I hear contact approaches
being requested regularly. Why is the contact approach used so much in the
Northeast?
We're smarter than Texas pilots?
