My "show-off" speciality was an engine-out ILS to a 0/0 touchdown
"hands-off". This after watching a student fight the machine for
2-3 approaches. :-)

In the 707 they used to humble us after a few V1 cuts that we ran into
the grass by setting up the airplane with takeoff trim and power set.
Without touching anything you cut #4 at V1. It would track a little
right without going off the runway and rotate at about Vr +5 and climb
out all by its self at V2 plus a little.
Some times we are our own worst enemy.
