Air/Ground
Should have bugger all to say but clubs are different and seem to think they are Gods on what you do or dont do in their area.
Whether for some obscure club regulation? What I cannot think? But then some clubs have weird rules thrashed out by equally weird committees.
PFLs can be a nuisance to other circuit traffic! As going into the O/H and practising a forced landing means that morally everyone else doesnt want to mess up your perfect glide to a touchdown so tend to keep clear until you have completed your exercise.
I cannot see a problem when the circuit is deserted. They are beneficial but not as beneficial as doing them in the Wild as then you get the full Mcoy of all the aspects of a PFL rather than one so forget the circuit other than for touchdown practice and do them away from the airfield.
