Default Fly It to the Ground

Fly Vg from the moment the engine
cuts to the moment you begin your
round-out... land wherever that puts you.


You can do better if you consider the wind. Fly faster than Vg into the
wind, slower than Vg with the wind, and you will increase your range
(and likelihood of reaching something hospitable).
