DX I have gone back and re-read your post, and what threw me was the context. I would suppose that every student should have an instructor that teaches them a stable go around, and indeed the unfortunate young student who died would probably been reasonably happy with a GA. But as the subject matter is unexpected low level orbits off an approach in dirty configuration, your comment would appear out of context.

So I assume that we both agree that the request by ATC for an orbit in such circumstances is a no no ?

For the record I publicly apologise wholeheartedly for accusing you of being too cheap to install a GPS
