... one day flaring to land and meeting a Zlin coming the other way at speed, .... My actions... Full power immediate climb, sharp left turn,
Really? Air law is very clear that the correct action for avoiding collisions when flying towards each other is to turn RIGHT to avoid.

What do you suppose the consequences could have been if the Zlin pilot saw you and simultaneously correctly turned right to avoid you?

Flying downwind at 100 feet after admitting no knowledge of the local overhead wires and their routings, then a snap circuit so brief that you "land prob a minute or less after the go-around."...? Straight after the 'split-ar$£' turn the wrong way???

I wouldn't be boasting about such poor airmanship on a public forum.
