Nice work there at KSAN! A little feedback from the the F16 cockpit 😊
Transition needs to be given to aircrafts flying through Tower’s airspace. With KSAN being at sea level, this means that airspace ceiling is 5000 feet MSL (same as AGL). You gave me a transition altitude of 5000 feet, which is too high.
More on Transition altitude here.
Pattern entry for inbound to runway 27: good!
Cleared for the option with exit direction: good.
Instruction timing: good.
Great work on the go-around! No new pattern entry instruction needed though, unless you want me to go to a different runway (which you hadn’t 😉).
Remember: aircrafts that are remaining in the pattern, don’t need a new pattern entry instruction (enter right downwind, runway 27), because they are already in the airport’s pattern.
Only new inbounds and aircrafts that change runway require a pattern entry instruction.
Keep up the great work! 👍🏼
Tip: grab an airport with two parallel runways, such as EDDL, so you can practice runway changes, and the various runway exit procedures.
Any questions, send me a direct message
