Just as a matter of interest, what checks do you do at 300' on a PFL?
Apologies - that was less than clear. Because they were PFL's above the airfield to actually land, after the PFL Downwind checks, we were treating them as normal Glide Approaches.

So, the 300' check I've been taught is:

C - Carb Heat Off
R - Runway clear and available?
A - Approach stable?
P - Permission granted?

With "Go Around" being the "No" answer to the last three.

But that's a normal approach, rather than a forced landing where there's little you can do about most of it
