Default Problems in a commercial flight


In small aircraft, the engines are so unreliable that engine failures must be
practiced. Ironically, there's no really good way to practice them, since
full-motion simulators for small aircraft are rare, and it's too dangerous to
practice true engine failures in a real aircraft (setting an engine to idle
doesn't count).


Loon mallet please....
