Chris, I agree. Turns to base leg in a SEL should normally be WITHIN 1/2 mile of the end of runway. That puts you at about a 45 degree angle from the end of the runway. If my stopwatch is correct, at an approach speed of 80mph, the pilot was at about 1.3 miles when wings level. Way too far. When I was in training, all my landings were power-off before turning base unless I had to extend down-wind for traffic. :>)

@@1stinsonguy All this talk about stabilized approaches has people dragging it in from 5 miles out. My CFI is an ex F18 guy and we power off at the numbers on downwind, hit the flaps and fly an arc basically to the threshold.

Yes, 21 is landing slightly downhill at SEZ. But if winds are from SW, it would be the favored runway. We can't see the sock but another airplane is seen using 21 also, so 21 must be the active at this point. But your point is well taken. Thanks.

@@1stinsonguy everyone I know says if you have to land on 21, go somewhere else. There is a wind shear type thing off the north end when it blows from the south.

Nope. Nose was on the centerline. Camera was on the wing. Look at where the prop is.
