Pattern Altitude
Not important, but still curious…
As I understand, VFR Waypoints are given five-character identifiers that start with VP (for Visual Point it seems). And, in the LA area, the third character is usually but not always L (for Los Angeles it seems).
That said, most of the two digit end-codes are pretty obvious and easy to remember. For example, VPLDL is Disneyland, VPLHP is Huntington Pier, and VPLDP is Dana Point.
Any idea why VPLSR is used for the “Hawthorne & 405 Freeway” intersection?
It’s probably obvious, but I cannot figure it out.
