Default When does the risk outweigh the benefit?

I have no statistics to back
this up, but I think it's the application of full power from idle (as
in a go-round, touch and go, or engine out emergency landing practice)
that causes the most wear and tear.



I really don't understand your thoughts on this stance, Jay.

I know you have said you slowly apply power for takeoffs, but if you did
that at the end of the engine out emergency landing practice, how is that
different than takeoffs?
