I always enjoyed forced landings in the slab wing arrow because of that. Your decision making was "what's under me?" Then you go and land on it, pretty much an auto-rotation! You descend to get enough energy to flare.
When doing my Arrow type rating I had the power pulled by my instructor 1500 feet overhead the airfield (with gear extended) and I only just made the runway. I remember looking at the VSI and it was sitting between 1500 and 2000 fpm. Talk about a ground rush!
