So what happens when you do an away landing and you don't know the landmarks?<br /><br />When I learned to fly it was all about the relationship to the runway. 'About 1 mile parallel,' 'Turn base at 800 with the threshold jusr behind you left shoulder,' etc.<br /><br />What happened to all that ?<br />          Paul Hewitt - Jul 22,2010   Viewers  | Reply     Forgot to mention Geoff is building an LSX....          David Mazer - Jul 23,2010   Viewers  | Reply     My daughter was also taught by landmark and it didn't make sense to me either for exactly <br />the same reason. Unless, of course, they never expect one to fly to any other airport.          Philip Mendelson - Jul 22,2010   Viewers  | Reply     Great job... Thanks for the post.          Thomas Alexander Bowden - Jul 22,2010   Viewers  | Reply     I thought everything was upside down in Australia.           - Jul 25,2010   Viewers  | Reply     Can you not come in facing the trees? I used to use a strip in the Grand Canyon many years ago with permission of the owners of course, Cessna 172 and had just enough space to get in and out, no chance of a go around as you landed facing the canyon wall and took off the opposite direction. There was quite a few wrecked planes against the canyon wall that were left there as a reminder, I used the same landing site by copter as well a few times, it was best to approach like a fixed as the thermals on the wall were diabolical.
