When I am teaching the circuit and landing I regularly cover the ASI to stop the students from chasing the ASI and instead concentrating on flying the correct attitude. As we chug around the circuit I ask them what they think the airspeed is and then uncover the ASI to check. They are continually amazed at how close they usually are. For my CPL students I do a complete circuit and landing with the ASI covered.
