This stands for Aeronautical Information Manual. Remember when your CFI taught you to turn crosswind around 500-700 feet? Section 4-3-3 states “If remaining in the traffic pattern , commence turn to crosswind leg beyond the departure end of the runway within 300 feet of pattern altitude.” Check the AIM.
