My worst complaint is the pilot (not from the area) who insists on doing
a left pattern when the AF/D and the sectionals all explicitly state
right pattern. Why? Because FTG is cozy in the SE corner of DEN's
class B. A mile west or a mile north, and you're violating the
Class B surfact airspace.


Similar situation at our home airport. Left traffic for two of the
runways snugs you up very close to Class B.

And when the pilot is reminded about the right traffic, he (why is
it *always* a man?) responds "not in my book!"


*hee* *hee*

Is there a directional indicator around the windsock? I'd have
trouble not responding "see those little yellow thingies circling
the windsock down there?"

Yeah, and then there's published TPA of 800 ft but all the planes
who insist on flying at 1000.

Cheers,
