Of course, ST, one has to choose time, place and circumstances. I'm not suggesting it in a busy circuit at lunchtime, but on a calm summer evening (benign and predictable winds), at an airfield you know well, and with the airspace to yourself, it's still pretty good fun. Unless I'm the statistical anomaly that somehow managed to survive the exercise...

I should also add that I said "circuits", not "touch and goes". I never tried to actually land or take off this way. Even I'M not that nuts.

But enough of my thread drift. A little right rudder pressure and we should be back on course.
