Default Circle to Land @ KRBG

I'd say the statement on the chart about circling east not authorized,
which is regulatory, trumps the VFR traffic pattern, which is AFAIK not
regulatory, but a matter of custom established by the airport management.


FAR 91.126b "Direction of turns: When approaching to land at an airport
without an operating control tower in Class G airspace-(1) Each pilot of an
airplane must make all turns of that airplane to the left unless the airport
displays approved light signals or visual markings indicating that turns
should be made to the right, in which case the pilot must make all turns to
the right."

The same requirement is imposed (except when ATC says otherwise) for Class
E, D, C, and B by 91.127, 91.129, 91.130, and 91.131.
