Did anyone else here go out to the low flying area on a windy day and conduct "Constant radius turns about a fixed point on the ground" training as part of their CPL?

Apart from the obvious real life applications it was also a good way to train people to not kill themselves in the "air/ground interface".

You know, teach them not to be fooled into thinking their ground speed was actually their airspeed and other such strong illusions.
