Final Approach
Another thread reminded me of the one airport that I sometimes fly into that seems to have it in for me. LOL
It is KCLW. I have flown into it maybe 8 times. I always have trouble spotting it from the air and more often than not do not like my first attempt at landing there and go around. It is almost 200 nm from my home airport so I don't go over there unless I have a reason to but a good friend lives nearby and, wouldn't you know it, I also ended up flying the Luscombe and the Luscombe's owner in there to look at another airplane. Needless to say, a go-around was involved.
They discourage training flights there and do not allow T&G at all so I never spend more time in the pattern than needed to get down. Next time I am over there, though, I am going to do some stop and taxi-backs until I get over the jinx.
Y'all have any place you fly that doesn't seem to agree with you?
