That turned out to be an interesting thread. I get back from vacation and y'all talked aviation and didn't argue too much! 
Anyway cool info, all.

Because everyone can agree on how awesome flying is. No matter how fast or slow you are doing it!

Just don't be like the guy who was in the pattern at Nellis a few years ago with a stuck throttle (because something was jammed in the rear cockpit throttle of the D model backseat since they didn't tie it down correctly) and set up for an overhead FO, then decided at the last minute to change to a straight-in... almost made it! Jet crashed about 300 yards short, he had to punch.
Yeah, that would be another good example of a purpose for the overhead SFO. At the very least, don't shut it down until you have the field made regardless…..
