Billy, I really love to read your posts! LOL

...There's a flight pattern? That's so funny...but true at our field...

Sundays....one or 2 guys doing 3-D right on the apron; another 2 doing "normal" flight up a 100' (but doing anything they want, in any direction) and one or two trying to land....one upwind and one downwind......Oh, plus a helo at the far end, maybe two.

So, you're absolutely correct...There's a pattern?

Now, in walks the new guy that just solo'ed and wants to practice. LOL

Talk about intimidation!

That's why I go on weekdays very early and am finished by noon. I've got enough trouble trying to fly and land let alone worry about half-a-dozen other yahoos trying to nail me......

...There's a pattern? I love it!
