Here, Here! I'd rather be alive and anachronistic then a dark
spot on some gopher's front porch! Found another sim today at a garage
sale, Tracon (Traffic Controller), came with an unused prescription for
Zantac with it. :-) Look at this way, if they taught glide approaches,
there might be a few more pilots around to extole the virtues of being
in a non-powered approach when thier engines quit.
