Did a simulated power out emergency today, and
killed the throttle near 4500 ft. Established my best rate of glide (70mph) and as I found my most viable field to land in, we were going over the procedures for such an occasion. Eventually I reached a grassy field that actually looked decent, surface and all. As I set up an attitude and realistic entry we had really lost altitude, and now, I gave it full throttle. Sputter, sputter. We were dropping. My CFI's hands were suddenly moving fast as a blur. It seemed like a long time, and I just stayed on my landing course fully prepared to set it in the field, and then Broommm! the engine revved up and it was climb baby climb! Now that's one I'm not gonna forget! --- Mark |
