Ballistic Recovery System
I agree. I looked at all 3 reports; one sounds like a real engine failure
(severe vibrations) in IMC. They gave it a valid try -- flew an ILS approach --
and gave up at 1000' AGL when they couldn't maintain the glideslope. The others,
what were they thinking? The one guy was trying a straight-in approach from
5 miles out. We really hated those types when we flew off a paved runway.
The third was at 9000 feet! The glide range had to be something approaching
20 miles from up there! I can't believe there wasn't a runway around somewhere!
