Fantastic post, thankyou for taking the time to write that.
My 2 cents....
Some aircraft I've flown (particularly fast turbo props), only need a couple of degrees nose down (or not even) before the VSI takes you on a wild goose chase down to 1000fpm-1500fpm etc...
It's a trap for new players, especially in the circling area on a marginal day....
Scan scan scan.... (and include old mate VSI)!
