I have never met ANY 'standard PPL' FI who teaches this maneuver in the R22, nor ANY R22 PPL who has had it demonstrated to them, hence I asked the question.
I have a lot of experience of teaching in a non-JAA environment, and I wanted to know what other JAA FIs thought of this maneuver.
I don't touchdown on off-airfield landings, and the flight always starts and ends at a licensed airfield, hence it's legal.
I didn't demonstrate the EFOTA it on the basis of posters here, I did it from my experience of doing thousands of autos in the R22.
