NEVER AGAIN /
Six-Right surprise
Let's try the runway this time,
not the taxiway
BY DOUG MAGILL
" CESSNA ONE-NINER-TWO-NINER FOXTROT
cleared touch-and-go Runway Six Right. "
The Burke Lakefront tower controller's
voice was crisp and authoritative. I loved
that professionalism, and my ability to be
part of a brotherhood where the rules were
clear, communication precise, and expectations
high. I acknowledged the clearance
with my own crisp " Two-Niner Fox " and
reduced power, lowered the flaps, and went
through my prelanding checklist.
Few things are more invigorating than
a clear fall afternoon and being able to fly.
I had departed Cuyahoga County Airport
(CGF) in Ohio after doing a few touchand-go
landings there. Cuyahoga is a busy
airport and has a lot of corporate traffic.
They were doing repairs to the main
runway for a few weeks, so I was using
the taxiway to take off and land, which
required a great deal of precision.
Having recently soloed, every flight
alone was an experience, every landing a
success, and every moment aloft a paean to
an inexpressible sense of freedom and the
joy of a perspective that few get to have.
The flight to Burke Lakefront Airport
(BKL) was only a few minutes, as the fields
are close together. Burke is along the north
shore of Cleveland and was a great place
to practice touch-and-go landings as
there were always crosswinds. I wanted
to increase my level of professionalism
and become proficient at crosswind landings.
Today was a perfect day for it. Maybe
a 20-degree crosswind at eight to 10 knots.
A great combination, strong enough to be
challenging, but below the threshold of
