Not to point too fine a point on it but I would also argue that by ALWAYS
doing approaches like you are landing in a small field you are unnecessarily
putting yourself at risk. It is worth the risk to be slow on final if you
Fly the yellow triangle (plus correction for estimated wind) and you are
safe. If you are not able to fly the yellow triangle, you're not ready
for solo. It's as simple as that. Under no circumstances fly the final
slower than that triangle, especially not when outlanding.
That said, of course a pilot should be able to analyse a situation and
adopt his behaviour accordingly. We train for this by choosing a
different touch down spot for each landing. Likewise, on a busy airport,
he should be able to hurry up.
