I am genuinely surprised how many people do PFL's at an airfield.
For me the hard parts are:
-Selecting the right field (what looks good from a couple of thousand can look quite ropey from a couple of hundred, particularly wrt slope)
-Planning an appropriate 'circuit' around it w/o prior knowledge and landmarks, positioning into the 'downwind' properly (exacerbated by the need to judge height above an unknown datum).
- Dealing with having committed to a field, getting the approach right and not changing ones mind inappropriately/making good decisions if you are making a hash of it.. Last couple I did 'wild' would have left me in the far hedge.
Obviously the above aren't really tested doing a PFL to the runway. Is this a 'cultural difference' (given my training was not of UK origin)?
