![]() "Cub Driver" wrote in message ... To me, "approaching to land" means a plane on final. Otherwise you're approaching to get into the pattern, not to land. I don't tend to make any turns on final (of course there are always those who call the "left final" position report after turning from "left base" but I've never understood what they were doing. |

Perhaps letting the jerk on "right final" know that they're in violation of the traffic pattern? Been there, seen that. Neil |

![]() Perhaps letting the jerk on "right final" know that they're in violation of the traffic pattern? I suspect that the "left final" people come from right-traffic airports and are mostly trying to convince themselves that what they are doing is correct. And yes, afraid that someone else might be on the familiar right final. all the best -- Dan Ford email: see the Warbird's Forum at www.warbirdforum.com and the Piper Cub Forum at www.pipercubforum.com |

Now, suppose you are flying the ILS, doing the usual S-turns about the localizer. You are approaching to land. Do you make all your turns to the left? |
