No kidding!! Isn't that why we all learned steep-turns-about-a-point?  Even the 360-overhead would be thrilling at Aspen. If a pilot is going to do those types of maneuvers at Aspen, then he or she better have the right airplance and be very familiar with the airport. Those two factors always greatly improve the safety margin. But, that becomes, more or less, a special-qualification circumstance, as opposed to "plain old TERPS."
