Even from 1000 feet?

If you can't make it back to the field from 1000 feet, hang up your ticket.

C'mon. It all depends on your altitude.

You absolutely, flatly, cannot turn back and you will die if you try...
Now, I will not go into my usual tirade on this topic, however I expect

the
usual suspects to jump all over this with their claims of 'proof' that

they
tried it and they succeeded...
Sadly, some will read their garbage, tuck it away into their memory bank,
and for a few the day will come when they lose an engine on climb out and
they will turn back - and die...

aircraft had either stalled or developed a
very high sink rate before impact. At some point, that isn't

survivable.
