Sixty degrees turns are part of routine PPL training, without a parachute.


Training is exempt from the parachute requirement.

Check the regs you so often quote with implied authority.


I've already pointed to them, and if you had looked at them yourself, you
would have seen the exemption for training.

Finding your own wake turbulence while doing 60/360s happens every day, and
is most often demonstrated by every CFI.


At constant altitude?

Descending 360 turns are executed routinely by pilots needing to descend
without leaving an area, such as descending to land after crossing high
mountains.


Ah ... descending turns are different, and you might well enounter your own
wake in that case.
