The whole traffic pattern issue drives me insane. At Spanish I fly the traffic pattern. We basically fly them at the same speed as fixed wing guys so it just works out. However at Salt Lake Muni 2 I fly inside and lower than the fixed wing pattern. With that said it is my responsibility to know where the traffic in the pattern is and collision avoidance falls on me. I do not know what the SSH guys do in Spanish they seem to make their own rules down there, but then again so does UVSC.

You know you love Utah County flying

I actually monitor the UVSC freq and it amazes me how many there are out there that announce on their little freq, but say nothing on the official CTAF, let alone listen to it.
