French Valley can get alittle crazy over the weekend, but generally, it's done fairly safely and most of the pilots i've seen over there actually use their radios. Now, if you go a few miles southwest of F70, then it can get unsafe, there are some crazy pilots flying around in that area and many people (including myself) have had traffic get a little to close for comfort.

That's what I like about FF, ATC can paint a basic pic for you when you arrive in the area and then you can use the CTAF and your eyes to complete your mental TCAS.
