The actual training which you have never had and clearly don't
understand is to know when turning back is not an option.

It's the other way around: Training is intended to make it clear that
turning back is not an option by default, not by exception. As a general
rule, you never try to turn around.

I'll repeat myself one more time. The training is to know when you can turn
around. There is almost always some point above which a return to the field
is possible & probable. That point is different for various aircraft and
pilot skill levels.

I have been through the training. You have not. Do not attempt to lecture me
on what the training is or isn't. In simpler terms: you don't know what you
are typing about.

As a side note since you obviously don't understand the entire problem
presented in the ASF short, the aircraft did not suffer a total power
loss.

That's probably why he lived. But many pilots will accidentally or
deliberately overlook that important detail.

You are in absolutely no position to speak on what trained pilots may or may
not do.

Well spoken... typed, that man!

Unfortunately he either can not read, or transfer eye or ear input to
his brain, or his brain is unable to process it.
