As a newly qualified PPL(A) (<2 months) with 15hrs post-licence PIC and 10 different post-licence airfields visited (I've been exploring), I find the most common area of challenge for me for unfamiliar airfields is circuit patterns. They are either not available or hard to find ahead of time, being unpublished or squirrelled away in a website somewhere. This is surprising given noise abatement concerns, and surely it would be in the best interest of GA's community relations to do better here.
Why aren't circuit patterns a mandatory part of the AIP for licensed airfields, and could they be?
And until then, any thoughts on how to improve airmanship here?
