Excellent reply Airbus Girl,
was wondering if any one was going to say that.
One other item in addition is that you will be more than likely going from a headwind situation to a tailwind one and it will take a significant pitch down to maintain any airspeed, (which could mean a loss of 20kts and more so to maintain it in a 30deg bank) which at low altitude is going to be hard to have the courage to do as most peoples instinct is to keep away from the ground as you stated.
I often fly a Cirrus for recreation and it glides like a brick, so EFATO would be very entertaining to deal with especially out of Elstree
Totally agree with the briefing suggestion, like you we do it as a matter of course and when something happens you just get on with it.
