Early Left Turns EGKA
I will admit to sometimes not following the circuit pattern when departing 20 and going off to the east.
If im doing T&G,s my focus is on a cross wind climb out of 110deg until I reach circuit height of 1100ft
But if im going east I now realize that once IV crossed the coast I have forgotten the circuit pattern and followed the coastline which is 80deg as it feels safer to hug the land rather than the wet water.
Probably its due to my C152 not have such a great rate of climb as compared to other high performance planes that I have never reached 1100ft as I went under the Crosswind / Downwind area of the circuit.
However im going to make sure I keep to the pattern from now on
