80 kts huh? I like to fly fast. Even in the pattern. Learned that during
the instrument training at BIG airports. You won't mind if I blow past you
at 100kts on the downwind. I mean why should I be stuck behind a slow poke.
Sure, I'll tell you I'm coming. Or maybe not. No reg against not using the
radio. Right?

If you are still behind me when I am on the downwind you'll never catch
me as I usually turn base at the numbers. Or sooner, depending on where
I am parking.

Absolutely no problem at all. Just be sure to pass on my right where you
belong, because I'll be turning left inside of you.

I don't even care whether or not you use the radio. If you do, that's great.
If you don't, well I can manage ok with that too.

Fly pretty, anyone can fly safe.
