Your basic premise is incorrect, and there is no data to back up such a
claim. In fact, it is impossible for all aircraft to fly the same pattern.

is
flown correctly and consistently by everyone.*******

Didn't your mama ever say "If everybody jumped off the bridge, would you do so too?"

Just because everybody else is doing it, doesn't make it safe. The fact that they are
too lame to turn the pattern around to land upwind, or they patterns wide enough for
a 747 isn't compelling reason to follow along.

Maybe you should change newsreaders, Ron. Since you can't seem to be able to
follow a thread. Or maybe it's just too much ego and not enough smarts. If
you follow the tread you'll see that I was not recommending everyone follow
the same pattern, rather, just the opposite.

When you build up enough time in the bush to be able to get a real job I'll
start respecting your point of view. Till then you're just a low time
loudmouth.
