One more thought.
Some of the best training I have received was in a course on emergency/off airport landings. In the course, I (with an experienced instructor and a properly equipped airplane) did numberous off airport landings in fields and small private strips.
It is a real shock the first few times you have to descend through a narrow slot in the trees and then turn to land in a rough, short field. It taught me to keep a cool head, always fly the plane and remember that airspeed is life. The big killer in emergency landings is stalling the plane.
