The emphasis during a Forced landing in my day was the final judgement as to whether you would throw it away (PFL), or in the real case, eject in a controlled manner if you were not going to land in a reasonable place on a suitable surface. Although it is nice for a student to ‘get in’ it was this final critical decision that determined whether the student was safe to attempt a PFL/AFL whilst solo. No amount of gliding experience is going to prevent press-on-itis as evidenced by the parameters in this final turn.
