We are taught that the lowest safe approach and landing speed is best so as to minimise impact speed on landing but....
This morning as I was driving along in the country, I noticed a field that was long and flat and was just thinking what a good field for a forced landing it was when I noticed telephone wires across the approach.
So my question is this, imagine you have chosen said field to land but failed to spot the wires untill you are commited, the natural response is going to be to pull up to avoid the wires, but at normal approach speed the chances of stalling are significant (without engine power to maintain speed) with disasterous concequences.
Would it be sensible to fly a faster approach to give the opportunity to climb briefly if needed without the risk of stalling.
For all you pedants out there, I realise that in your perfect worlds I should have spotted the wires from 3000 feet and chosen another field, just thought I would say it and save you the trouble
