Genghis spot on. Bomber Command circuits should be banned unless they are dictated by location etc.
I've never crashed (so far) but I've had some interesting "arrivals"
As mattpilot said, gliding in with the propellor making an interesting intersection in your line of vision rather than whizzing around at idle speed makes a BIG difference to
a) the glide performance
b) for those fortunate enough to fly taildraggers you have no propwash over the tailfeathers which makes directional control once on the ground interesting if your brakes are of the "minimal" variety
I like to practive PFL's when I go flying (lot's of big fields in East Anglia) and I never fail to amaze myself how badly the first one nearly always goes......... Strangely enough it went fine when I did my bi-annual checkflight. Since then I've found that talking to myself helps ie describing out loud what you are doing seems to help the thought processes as I had done on my bi-annual
