hmmm... That's an interesting thought!

If I recall correctly, the turns I was doing before landing were to the
right, because I was showing my daughter our house. I don't recall if
the light came on in the turn from 45 to downwind, or whether I was
straight and level on the 45, but you've definitely given me something
to think about.

I'll head up this weekend and see if I can reproduce it by loading it
up on the ground. If not, I'll have to get airborne and see what the
behavior is in turns (each way) vs. straight and level.

Thanks!
Todd
