Crosswind Landing at Fullerton KFUL

Flying mostly at night I usually get the calmer winds, so anytime there is an opportunity for crosswinds I take it and make the most of it.
A bit of background, before my landing, KFUL tower landed a Mooney that had lost its coms, there was a line of planes 3 after me lined up to land as they cleared the pattern for the Mooney with lost coms. In these cases, especially at places where students fly, senior pilots need to speed it up and try not to throw student pilots too far off by having them do long downwind.
I was #1 to land, on a long straight in final, with 3 planes in the pattern extending. As an experienced pilot you dont doddle, you keep it fast, make sure the pilots behind you are not thrown off too much. You dont have to, safety is priority, but if it can be done safely, you do it.
My approach was 90 kts until 1/2 mile (usually 90 kts until 1.5 to 2 miles), then I slowed it down to 80 for gusts (75 normal), and finally 75 on short final (70 is normal in this 182). This is a 1964 Cessna 182 G.
Enjoy this simple video.

Nice, I’ve landed at Fullerton once.

In Canada we {vfr} pilots cannot fly at night unless we have our night (instrument rating). Here there is no such thing as night vfr.

I usually fly IFR, but sometimes just do night nav near LAX, quite challenging in tight corridors. But being ifr rated is much help especially around the coast. Many vfr pilots have crashed at night, including JFK Jr who had 300+ hrs.

thanks for the clarification.@@FSX404
