Your right. the whole idea of instructing is to teach people to deal
with a potentially dangerous environment. The idea is to do the
"teaching" in such a way that the danger level of the lesson isn't more
than the danger you're trying to teach the student to avoid.
In this vein most of the sane among us have found the way to do this
with some air under our butts :-))


I don't see much point in doing one in a single on take off anyway. About
the only lesson learned there is "pretty scary, eh?" The most likely way
someone is going to come to grief with a terminal engine failure on takeoff
is from stalling aor spinning in. The best place to ingrain the sort of
training to avoid this scenario is done at altitude anyway.
