If you've been flying long enough, you definitely have a story about a sketchy traffic pattern situation at a small non-towered airport.  Maybe you saw a student pilot do something crazy.  Maybe it was a pattern that was so full that it didn't feel safe.  Or perhaps you had a close call with an airplane that wasn't making proper radio calls.  Any way you look at it, traffic patterns at non-towered airports have the potential to be dangerous if aircraft aren't doing what they're supposed to be doing.  Hopefully this week's episode of Behind The Prop arms you with some knowledge to improve your skills in the pattern!
