I make about 75% of my landings essentially "power off". If I ever have
to
do it for real, I will have done thousands of them by then.
The difference might be the drag caused by a windmilling propeller
with an engine making no power at all, or a locked up engine with a
stationary prop, versus what happens with the engine at idle. Kinda
hard to simulate the first two.
