Though air traffic controllers in Seattle tried to direct him to an
airstrip in Kooskia, Idaho - just 20 miles away - he never arrived.

Assuming total loss of engine power of this Piper 180, at what
elevation (above ground) could a glide 20 miles be expected? Sounds
like a long way. I realize we'd have to know winds aloft to make a more
accurate estimate. Wonder how short he was of making Kooskia.
