Speaking of engine failure, what is the power off glide ratio of the
Pathfinder, Jay?
In technical terms, that would be known as a "load of sand" glide
ratio...

Although I take solace in noting that it's far better than a Swearingen
SX-300's glide ratio, which is in the "lead brick" category.
Jay,
The SX-300 has a great glide ratio -- considerably more than that
barndoor Piper! It just gets its best glide around 120 kt.
