Engine Failure Landing Practice in a Cessna 152

Will you land if your engine fails while turning to finals? This is a practice only, I had to play with the flaps...

Buenísimo el vídeo Tuckie.

¿Qué procedimientos has seguido? Veo que como mucho flaps 10º, no ?

Un saludo.

@onecheman Se empieza buscando 70 kt, estaba en flaps 10, pero cuando el instructor me dice "Espabila que no llegamos" quito los flaps para aumentar el planeo, luego al cuando me quedo alto me dice que vuelva a un punto de flap, me sigo quedando alto y bajo dos puntos por un momento pero se me hunde y vuelvo a un punto, y así me quedo hasta tomar todavía a 60 kt.

How can it be an engine failure, with the engine running ?

[TUCKIE10]

@AR123457 It's a practice, we never stop the engine intentionally, the idea is not to develop a real emergency ;) Instead, we simply throttle back to idle, engine is not developing power and glidepath has to be trained.

@TUCKIE10 I Didnt like your emergency at all, in a cessna 172, you can land without flaps perfectly, i put flaps nly when im sure, im gonna make it to the runway, instead of that you landed almost before the threshold, and your instructor gave you a little bit of power, but nice landing, cya...

[TUCKIE10]

@RicJParis It was my first time. Did you perform perfect at your first emergency training? Where's your "perfect" video? ;)

@TUCKIE10

Ah I see... I figured you'd cut the mixture :)

[PeetPeeet]

@RicJParis Actually looked right about perfect to me. And if you've really tried flapless landings you'll know that your ground speed is a lot higher - high ground speed is not necessarily what you want if you're landing in an emergency, you don't have the option of going around.

@Asuquints Man, that'snot full flap, just 2 points... anyway you are true, should have done another thing. Like in any first time of everything, we should do a different thing ;)

[Asuquints]

@TUCKIE10 , Yeah, but you used full flaps, which did the same thing. Don't get me wrong, it was a nice landing. Im just saying, if I have no engine, Im flying with less flaps and Im aiming AT LEAST at the normal aiming.

[TUCKIE10]

@Asuquints If aimed far away speed decreased, sink rate increased. I simply maintained optimum glide speed, that's it.

[Asuquints]

Why in the world would you aim for the threshold instead of the aiming point for an engine off landing??? Especially at this airport....

nice landing

what kindof a camera did used?

Interesting time to pull a fanstop! I imagine in a populated area such as the one you are over-flying, it would be very hard to find a field suitable for landing an aircraft!

Here in the UK, especially where I am flying its fields-galore so spoilt for choice!
