Aircraft Engine Failure Demonstration

See more at http://www.fearofflyinghelp.com/ - Free online Fear of Flying Help Course created by an airline captain. From Lesson 3. Also http://www.fearofflyingbook.com and http://www.fearofflyingdvd.com Three out of four engines are shut down on an old propeller plane to demonstrate that planes can still fly and jets even have more power.

FEATHER FOUR!!!!

[freakybuzz]

Even if an aircraft lost all engines, the passengers would feel no sensation of falling any more than in a normal, powered descent as the plane would become at that point a glider.

EVERY pilot receives training on how to land an airplane without engine power; I've done so myself on several occasions-- just for training fortunately. From small Cessnas to large Boeings, the basic aerodynamic principles are the same.

imagine IF it happened with the flaps full and gear down at landing speed

Funny that Freakybuzz wrote a sensible comment two years ago, whereas most of the recent comments are full of misspellings, not written in sentences and pretty incomprehensible.

@circusboy90210 I do see what u are saying regarding the whole no experience no job catch 22 thing. just out of interest what field of engineering are you in u said in an earlier post u have thousands of hours driving heavy vehicles what vehicles do u drive?

[circusboy90210]

@hod05 my first degree did not pan out for me. no job no experience , no experience no job. my plan is to educate myself & manipulate materials into a fashion I see fit to maximize my design parameters & have fun. don't need sheepskin to do your own thing plus the job is for life.

@circusboy90210 none taken im currently on a contracted 4month work placement working with qualified drafters so... i never said drafters create anything not sure why u keep bringing that up an education in engineering and maths are desired if not required by most employers (i tried after collage everyone wanted a degree) my other point being u rarely get a job for life today most jobs can lead onto something else it pays to be flexible these days

[circusboy90210]

@hod05 no offense their is no "we "yet your still in school. general knowledge is good but a drafsman creates nothing. I do wish you the best of luck in whatever endeaver you proced to do though.
