step turn

Bang on the plane doesn't know if its a couple of feet off the runway or 1000 feet only the pilot knows and the problem is with the pilots mindset not the aircraft.

That is an excellent exercise to get the student pilot familiar with operating near the ground instead of a major fear factor down the approach and should be a compulsory exercise before any landing is attempted.
