Hi, I'm Courtney.
Today, Im going to demonstrate an "engine out" landing.
It'll be a forward slip to a landing, starting at 4,000 feet above ground level.
I'll reduce power to a near idle and glide to the mid-point of the runway below us.
I'll be using a forward slip to help descend quickly.
We will descent 4,000 feet and land in 2 and a half minutes.
It'll be a bit of a challenge. It's windy, a bit of turbulence and there's a 13-MPH crosswind.
We're a 4,000 feet above ground level.
Reducing throttle to idle.
Commencing forward slip.
Fully defected right aileron, partial left rudder.
Holding airspeed to 55 miles per hour.
The aircraft's never exceed speed is 75 miles per hour.
I'm flying a Quicksilver MXL with double surface wings and ailerons.
You cannot slip without ailerons.
We're directly above the airport.
Using the rudder to turn.
Always be watching for traffic.
Still at idle and still in a forward slip.
We're descending at 1800 feet per minute.
The wind has blown us away from the runway threshold.
My miscalculations has made us too close and too high.
Normally, this is where you call a go-around.
Our airspeed has increased, too.
I've done this maneuver often enough in windy conditions to know it is still a go for a landing.
Exiting forward slip. Engine still at idle, airplane still in a glide.
Raised to nose slightly to bleed off airspeed.
Thirteen miles per hour crosswind.
Look at the windsock on the upper left.
Looking good.
Slowing down.
Approaching stall speed.
Boom, we're down.
Touched down a bit further than planned.
Fun? Yes, practicing emergency landings are always fun!
I really appreciate your watching my videos.
I'll see you in the skies!
Bye!
