L18 - Fallbrook

KCRQ is a short hop.

Watch out for Pendleton restricted airspace.

A20 and 1L4 are near to KIFP and I own those FSE FBOS (not IFP). 1L4 is dirt for an added challenge.

I enjoyed it, even though I am a very rusty and well behind the power curve. A full pattern really makes a difference. Thanks to the guy who told others to "be aware" when I had the engine failure and had to land opposite direction; that's what I would *really* appreciate in real life when I am too stressed to talk much on CTAF. I also appreciated that the number one holding short re-confirmed that he was staying put. That would make a lot of difference in real life too.

Great fun! Will try to be there next time.

Great time... I was online an hour late yesterday but was at KBNG doing patterns when you all returned from KPSP to give you some traffic to work around :-)

Sorry for not killing the drones, I was tied up all weekend with helping my daughter with a science project, "The Earth's Awesome Cores!"

2 days later, I no longer feel they are slightly awesome. I feel they are tiresome, time consuming and surprisingly hard to paint neatly on a Styrofoam ball.

Not a problem at all! Actually I'm glad they were ON during the event. One of my go-arounds was not made properly (without being practiced often enough), so I almost crashed the plane over the runway. That was scary and a good lesson to learn.
