Flying the pattern at KCPM

Compton Woodley Airport is non towered, so the pattern is self announced on CTAF 123.05. AC 90-66B asks for a report on entry and on each leg, and for the standard 45° entry to downwind at pattern altitude.

Watch the right traffic ends here: 07L, 07R. A right pattern at a field where the other end is left is the single most common place to end up pointing at opposing traffic. The full entry procedure is here →
