RWY 27R TPA 1588 (1200) RIGHT TFC SR-SS; TPA 1388 (1000) LEFT TFC SS-SR DUE TO 893 FT AGL MOUNTAIN 2.1 NM ENE OF ARPT.
Am I missing something: why did ATC clear them for the requested VFR left pattern on 27R one hour after SS?
Given the light vrb winds, 09L the longest rwy (27R 706ft DTHR) with the least challenging IFR app., with similar track miles when coming from SNA, I wonder whether the pilots requested this 09L GPS approach? Or was it refused due to traffic?? (Miramar?)
