Contact with tower. I began to turn back. I had to make it tight so as not to pop into SEA's airspace, so the bank angle was about 50°.

Bryan attempted to contact Boeng Field's tower but the controller was too busy to respond.

Why waste time with a traffic pattern? I cut right across the taxiway and runway to depart to the east.
