I have read hundreds of reports where, let's say, all,perished from a loss of control/spin in, within the circuit pattern.
I can claim to recovering from a spin at that height over a school playing field next to an airfield on final approach. If the football net had been up I would have been in it! I frightened my passenger and me! I also wrote it up for "I learned about flying from that" and it was published in "Flyer". It happened 25 years ago and my experience was such that it shouldn't have happened.......
.....it happened because I pulled a lot of G in a hard turn.
