I completed a flight review yesterday, but that's not really the subject.
We went from KAPA to KFTG for some takeoffs and landings. If you look at KFTG on a chart (or skyvector.com) you'll see how close it is to KDEN. If you zoom in on Google maps (
http://maps.google.com/maps?q=kftg&i...h&z=15&iwloc=A) the Class B surface area begins at Imboden Road. I think it's a bit less than a mile from the end of the runway.
So anyway, we're doing full-stop-taxi-backs on runway 8. There's also an experimental in the pattern.
During one of our taxi-backs:
Tower: Experimental XXXXX. Turn toward the runway now. You're inside the Class B.
Exp: It was that last half mile.
Tom and I looked at each other. The pilot's voice sounded surprising casual about it to both of us.
During our next taxi back:
Tower: Experimental XXXX. Turn base now. You're inside the Class B.
We didn't hear the response if there was one. During our last taxiback, we heard the Experimental trying to talk but the radio was a bit garbled:
Ground: Transmission garbled. Experimental XXXX, is that you heading east on the taxiway?
Exp: Yes.
Ground: Are your radios working now?
Exp: Yes.
Tower: I have a number for you to call...
We switched to Tower for takeoff.
Tom and I were expecting it. He turned to me and said, "He'll probably be calling you on Monday..."
