you don't get much of an "engine out" at 1500RPM

sort of builds a false sense of security of the seemingly good glide ratio

In small high wing planes (Ie 172, 152, 150) do you do/teach pulling
throttle all the back to idel? I've been told bring it to 1500 RPM, 1
notch of flaps. Not as hard on the engine
