I appreciate your views on high performance aircraft, though what I was referring to was high manoeuvrability. Fast aircraft are not necessarily more manageable in terms of there turning and gliding capabilities.

Just to clarify I was never taught to carry out a 180* turn after either a cable break or engine failure. I'm simply testing the idea, and some others. Although aviation is based around experience, I do believe that being so comparably young in it’s' development that aviation could open its gates to new alternatives.
