Good luck on your first engine failure during climb out, if you turn
back I hope you make it. but you'll have a better chance going
straight ahead...

Wow, the last time that I checked, I didn't need to have the permission
of the Imperial Asshole to post here, and since it wasn't in response to
one of your posts, I have to assume that you just enjoy randomly
editorializing on posts or posters that are not to your liking.

I can see you missed the point entirely. By the way, Vy is never at
best glide (it is above that ~69knots in a 172) -perhaps you would
like to revise *what determines Vy? My point was to ilustrate the
impossible turn with some concrete numbers instead of the handwaving

If I read my aerodyamics book correctly my summary is Vy = the Best L/
D Speed Corrected for the affect of the engine running. The Correction
is usually small. So Vy is often very close to the Best Glide speed.

I've also heard a lot of BS in this thread about not having good
palces to put the plane. There is nearly always somewhere flat to put
the plane within 90 degrees of the runway centerline -even a road.
Malls have big parking lots! Put it down flat in landing config and
you will probably survive, stall spin and you'll DIE along with your
PAX. A good pilot looks at the airport environs in a strange airport
and may ask about options at the runway end for this emergency.

You're a sick, putrid excuse for human life. The lowest form of ****.
The professional help you deserve is a slow death at the hands of a
highly
skilled marksman. Knees first, then go to work on the shoulders
and elbows. Maybe an ear. Then when you've started confessing your sins
and begging for that telling shot to the head, you should be left to
bleed
out in agony.

Dylan Smith formulated the question :
The answer is as always training, and having a plan. Think of the
eventualities just as you line up - if you lose power at point X, what
should you do. At point Y, what should you do? What about point Z?
