Apparently the SQL airport had its code decades prior to Oracle moving in next door. Co-incidence? All I know is the Oracle buildings are just barely outside the flight path, and every time I land on Rwy 12 I feel like I have to maneuver around them. We're supposed to avoid flying directly overhead, but they're directly where the base leg is supposed to be!


Yeah, the instructions are a bit tricky, especially since SFO Class B (to the floor) is just up ahead as well, an invisible wall you better not run into. Friendly controllers, though, in my experience :-)
