I think one should give more parameters, when listing things like this. How pattern is flown, vastly depends on the plane and the airfield. If I hear turn base at 8 o'clock and turn final on 45 degrees I would imagine a C150 at an airfield with a pretty short final pattern. If you fly by numbers, you get your home airfield right, but may miss the big airport. Fly by guts and training is all about finding it.
