Because in the UK you can't go below 500' unless you are intending to land etc etc.
So if you are doing auto's to a fixed point on an airfield, thats good, you can touch down or do a power recovery depending on your status as an FI if you are teaching, cos throttle management is'nt taught in the UK, from what i've seen to pilots.. So what if you need to auto and do throttle management like a fire in flight (power on) or loss of tail....hmmmm... i'll come back to that
I think you are probably describing PFL's, even then, no good powering out at 500'. Where the accidents happen is where studs or pilots don't know how to flare out and manage the last bit without mangfering themselves and or pax!!
Pointless unless you do them all the way, even with a power recovery at 5 feet, they are usefull, but 500'. Nah Mike, talking bollocks!!
