That's my understanding too, Waldo.

A lot of other stuff in Pumper's reply confused me too, but that's easily done.

As to all turns in the ATZ in circuit direction - I know you're right but if I'm approaching from the south to join 27 lefthand downwind then how do I turn from 000 to 090 without doing a right turn? Not challenging what Tim said but genuinely asking how to do it.
