what was scary was the number of "fellow" pilots that seemed unable to fly around the shoreline at 80mph, 1200', and follow the plane ahead.  maybe they all wanted to do 25 laps, or watch too much NASCAR.  these people were also going to land overhead or behind me when the runway finally got cleared

 

Kevin;

 

I guess I would be one of those guys.  Some of us have planes that stall at 80 mph.  On the other hand, I had it up to 220 mph (TAS) last week.  It’s a problem in the pattern as it seems I’m always eating up a Cessna.
