diverdriver 5 #26 May 11, 2004 QuoteYou don't know when that other engine is going to puke and wouldn't you rather set down in control than a twin engine glider out of control? After re-reading my words I do want to add one thing. Just because you lose both engines it does NOT mean you will go out of control. What it means is you have lost some of the control on the situation. You will have fewer options for a successful landing on pavement. The plane will glide just fine without any power on either engine.Chris Schindler www.diverdriver.com ATP/D-19012 FB #4125 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
