Opinions please, preferred pattern joining methods
Consider you're NE of the airfield, non towered airport, runway 18/36,
standard left pattern applies, with runway 36 the active. I'm interested in hearing what your personal method of joining the pattern would be, while adhering to the FAR's and AIM. I've two thoughts: Fly south, then west, pass overhead the field, and then 2 or 3 miles later do a descending 225 degree right turn, and join on a 45 degree to downwind, or Stay east and then south of the airport, and join a straight in outside 5 sm. Opinions? Stan |
