I've thought of another two possible differences. My flying training "Bible" is the Tutor training manual rather than Jeremy Pratt or Peter Thom - in fact my instructor positively discourages me to use the Flying Training Jeremy Pratt book! The other is any "Ground School" and pre flight briefing is very informal and free on the goodwill of the instructor, as our instructors all have day jobs.

It would make sense that MRTs and Emergency Breaks come under the steep turn sessions. I have indeed banked a 115 to 60 deg and continue to practice steep turns, still have trouble getting the attitude and back pressure).

"Emergency break" is yes, an unanticipated steep turn to avoid an aircraft on a collision course, flown with rather less accuracy than a textbook steep turn, its more roll, power, pull and get out of the way....and great fun!!!

Oh, and by the way, this thread is fun - so much so that its taken up the evening which I was indeed going to study PFLs and steep turns!!!
