Wings of Peril

Unless there’s a rule, only you can decide when there’s too much air traffic to fly at any particular moment. Asking to have the sky to yourself for a maiden flight is reasonable but I’m not even sure that a training flight is always a valid reason – depends on the situation. Your fellow fliers are being dumb and selfish. Besides, Its fun to fly with others, even pattern, and its part of the hobby. If I decide to wait, more often than not its because of one particular aircraft on one guy’s flight pattern or flying habits that I find distracting, not air traffic.
