<p>Pattern predicament! Discord member Dom shares audio and flysto.net data from a close call at an untowered airport—100 feet of separation, spotty ADS-B, garbled radio calls, and the eternal question: turn right to avoid or stay predictable in the pattern? The non-CFI crew looks at 14 CFR 91.113, Wild West untowered airports, and why sometimes you just need to GTFO. Plus: Thaden Invasion updates, icing on the vegetables origin story, and why &quot;show your belly&quot; might not be the best advice.</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Mentioned on the Show:</strong></p><ul><li><p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep44-happy-hour-guest-bryan-turner-aka-just-plane-silly/id1591463789?i=1000631026241"><u>Episode 44 with Bryan of Just Plane Silly</u></a> - Icing on the vegetables origin</p></li><li><p><a href="https://flysto.net/"><u>Flysto.net</u></a> - Track log visualization and analysis (FREE!)</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.aopa.org/news-and-media/all-news/2020/february/flight-training-magazine/technique-overhead-approach"><u>Flying the Overhead Break</u></a> - AOPA technique</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-14/chapter-I/subchapter-F/part-91/subpart-B/subject-group-ECFRef6e8c57f580cfd/section-91.113"><u>14 CFR 91.113</u></a> - Right-of-way rules</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.airnav.com/airport/BWG"><u>BWG - Bowling Green-Warren County Airport</u></a>, Kentucky - Brian&#39;s pattern work airport</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.airnav.com/airport/M54"><u>M54 - Lebanon Municipal Airport</u></a>, Tennessee - &quot;Wild West&quot; untowered field</p></li><li><p><a href="https://www.airnav.com/airport/GCC"><u>GCC - Gillette-Campbell County Airport</u></a>, Wyoming - Steve Schofield&#39;s home base</p></li></ul><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Support the Show:</strong></p><ul><li><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/midlifepilotpodcast"><u>Patreon.com/MidlifePilotPodcast</u></a> - Discord access &amp; exclusive content</p></li><li><p><strong>Special thanks to our 5 longest supporters!:</strong> 1DullGeek, Biff B, Chris C, Josh M, and Aero Grizzly!</p></li><li><p><a href="https://midlifepilotpodcast.com/"><u>MidlifePilotPodcast.com</u></a> - Merch, feedback, Thaden Invasion RSVP</p></li><li><p>Leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!</p></li><li><p><a href="https://youtube.com/@midlifepilotpodcast"><u>youtube.com/@midlifepilotpodcast</u></a> - Live Mondays 8PM ET</p></li></ul><p><em>10% of Patreon proceeds support Freedom Aviation Network&#39;s anti-human trafficking efforts</em></p><p><strong>Closing wisdom:</strong> &quot;Common sense is like deodorant.
