PWT gets pretty busy too... had some guy cut in front of me on final
there... :-) I was following the guy in front of me, heard him call
his base turn, saw him turn, heard him call his turn to final turn, saw
him turn... and was following him... as I turned final, I heard a guy
behind me call his base turn, while on final I heard him call his turn
to final, and while looking around thought "well, he must be behind
me..." and all of a sudden about 100' in front of me and about 50 - 100'
above me was a 172 :-) I then advised on the CTAF "Skyhawk that just
turned final... you have another Skyhawk underneath you... ON FINAL!",
Watched him for a couple seconds as started to strategize "What should I
do?" (student at the time practicing landings by myself), and if he
didn't do anything I was going to go-around left of the runway...
Couldn't go around on the right as there are skydivers over there now
(1/4 west of the airport)... but pretty soon I see flaps starting to go
up and he announces he is doing a go-around... :-) Stopped and had
lunch after that. :-)


Your smiley key is sticking...


As are both of your ... keys.
