Bet you get a few people watching with their cameras at the ready as you land once you announce yourself on the radio as:

"Golf Oscar Delta Alpha Kilo is a Dakota from XXX to XXX, presently south of XXX at 3000, VMC, estimate overhead field at XXX, request joining information".



I was going to suggest trying to land in the same distance as fast jets do on an aircraft carrier, for Henstridge has a "carrier deck" marked out in the middle of their runway. Your Dakota may not be able to manage it though.
