The Cherokee 180 glides only slightly better than a brick when you lose
the engine. At best you can realize maybe 1 statue mile gliding
distance for each 1000 feet AGL, so at 1500 AGL you can make a dead
stick landing to a field about 1.5 miles away. Maybe a little longer if
you've got a tailwind of course, and if you don't have to make any
turns. Once you start making turns, the Cherokee is so draggy that
it'll lose quite a bit of altitude in the turns.
