Re the TERPS/PANSOPS argument:
You first need to eliminate the 'Arizona/John Wayne' state of mind that TERPS circling is for real men.only and 'if you cannot stand the heat'..............
It does sound as if commonsense is lurking in the cactus bushes in the US of A, however. No-one is suggesting that PANSOPS is the 'best' solution but it is certainly safer.Having done a few TERPS circles the last thing I want in difficult weather in a circle is the added pressure of having to stay within a very tight area.
