One of the things that helped him make that decision was that he had
hundreds, if not thousands of "dead stick landings" as a flight

Well, I wouldn't say there was much of a decision to be made, myself. no
thrust and all that. Glider instructor woudl have helped him control the
airplane OK.

Well you wouldn't say a lot of things, if they didn't serve to primp your
own ego.

Was chattin with an A320 driver last night and he told me the airplane's
flight controls would have gone into a a law that the crew weren't used to
as a result of the power loss ( unless they hade the APU running which is
not likely) making the handling less than intuitive for him.
