Stephen,
Sorry I should have mentioned a couple of things in my previous post, then again I am still learning.
When using control points with skies a handy tip is to click on the ' View ' tab and show selection. This shows the area that will be affected depending on the size handle. It is a negative view but the area affected can be seen as you move the size handle. Very useful to prevent any hot spots due to insufficient size, particularly in a sky. Untick this to return to normal view.
You can also see how you are progressing by ' View ' Compare. This will show the origional and edited image side by side.
As you said once you know how its done it becomes easy and fast. It is easier to see and understand with images that are not too complex like those you posted above.
