Dan,

I didn't say there weren't places that it was doen or even that it was not a
good idea. I was just implying that it was not in the regs.

I have a helicopter rating too. At an uncontrolled airport, the fixed
wingers fly left pattern, pattern altitude 1000' - we helis fly right
pattern, pattern altitude 500', usually land on the ramp or taxiway.

Which one are you quoting? I have a helicopter rating and I am absolutly
sure neither of the CFIs or the examiner ever mentioned a thing about it
and you would think the exaimner might mention it when I entered the
pattern on the wrong side of the airport.

They are picky that way.

them
