Actually here in Australia, instead of flying circuits the traditional holding pattern is vertical loops with an Immelman onto final. its also traditional to do a low flypast to scatter any roos or sheep that have wandered onto the runway.
It reduces pilot boredom, one of the known factors in aviation accidents.
For the same reason we have banned turbines ...
As a result Aussie aviation is one of the safest in the world.
