That's only around here.
For day recoveries, you come overhead the field 15,000 MSL and split-S to a close-downwind about 440 kts and 500 AGL. Idle and boards abeam, gear/flaps on short base to final.
Kicker is getting from tower prior to the maneuver "Hog 21, wind calm, cleared to land, caution PIREP for small arms fire 2 mile final, outgoing arty east."
