speaking as a downunder driver,
two things need to be cleared,
1) never below the horizon line of two ridgelines if you are in an area where there maybe or are wires.
2) the usual -all the checks please - enough power to climb out if it is no go, how do you know, is the surface ok, what slope etc? all that comes from CLOSE observation above translation.
3) when approaching to land - lets be serious - we will do it at a reduced airspeed other than the normal not below 40knots until below 100 feet, why?
Because you silly sod if the donk fails, we are landing in a confined area surrounded by - err - jungle - err - buildings - or - err - any other unfriendly stuff - what does it matter if the donk fails you are committed to an unsafe situation already lets make it easy to recover if necessary!
So if the approach to land is out of the ordinary for safety sake then how could one possibly argue that a low level ogle which is necessary for saftey sake, be wrong.
