In my prior email I had the the following note in which I said 400' and that should have been 4000':
NOTE: Any manoeuvres near the ground, especially tight turns, require good airspeed. What I did was a classic way to spin in as pilots will see the ground rushing up at them in the steep turn and they try to stay away from the ground instinctively and speed washes off and then its bad. I practiced this type of emergence at 4000' AGL many times before getting near the ground.
