Pioneer,
thanks for that.
I know we all train to be able to react to a situation like that, but, the training is only a taste of the real thing
Each situation is different and can only be judged by the PIC at the time
Sometimes we make the right decisions and sometimes the wrong ones
I am only happy that the decisions I made were right for me at the time, but I am still very conscious of the fact that one minute sooner or later or the wrong decision could have ended in disaster for me and Glen
I just hope that I am never put in that position again and I can only stress that everyone needs to constantly practice their forced landing technique until it becomes second nature to them
Every situation is different, but if you have the training behind you, you can survive
After last weekend, I think my work/life balance will be changing a little towards the life side
I appreciate your questions and would have asked them myself of someone else in the same situation
We all learn from each other
Cheers and happy flying
Bryon
