Nice to have the circuit to yourself when the weather crap and can fly 600 foot oval circuits and get 10-12 landings in.
I recall arriving at Shobdon with no traffic and flying a nice tight circuit. The AFISO requested that I adjust my circuit to fly outside the villages to comply with local regulations. This increased the track distance from 3.5 nm to 6.8 nm and pushed me to the edge of the ATZ!
