Thank you for using the word "they."

You don't "move the airplane" to cover blind spots.


You've never lifted a wing to see under it before you turn?

I normally "cut the corner" from downwind to base in the pattern
precisely so that my wing doesn't block my view of the airport during
that portion of the flight. The idea that you don't move the airplane
for visibility is silly as a general rule.
