Many years ago, I landed near the end of the day at a remote airport
south of Minden, NV with another pilot during a U.S. national contest. While we were waiting, we were treated to the sight of yet another competitor doing a [very] low high-speed pass followed by a steep pull up to a normal pattern and landing. The rationale offered by the young man was wanting to inspect the runway closely before landing.  Chip Bearden ASW 24 "JB"
