When we do simulated engine outs we go ALL the way down to the field like 300 feet above it and then recover. I've been struggling with it a lil, I end up high on the approach. I've never tried the circle method but I'm hesitant to use it on the checkride since I've never practiced it before.
Not sure you can chose a good field from 5000ft as can't see power lines, fences slope etc! - looks like there are plenty so final selection prob could wait until 2000ft
Depends on weight/balance and your altitude. If engine failure occurs during take off climb, then you will most likely still have flaps set to T/O so you pitch for the appropriate speed found in the POH depending on flaps and weight. In this scenario at 5000ft, you will get more range if you pitch to the best glide speed with flaps up.
@@timt1519 Gliding 1. Wing Flaps T/O 2. Airspeed at 1609 lbs (730 kg) (vIAS) 72 kts / 83 mph / 133 km/h 3. Glide Ratio 14, which means at 1000 ft/305m above ground, and with no wind the distance of glide is 2.5 NM (4.3 km) from AFM
Thank you guys. These kind of videos are being very helpful during my training. All the best.
I'm doing emergency procedures tomorrow at KLEX. Thank you for the helpful video!

Make sure you actually fly at 73 knots, in other words establish glide attitude.

Too much lesson in the air
A-Airspeed(73KTS)
B-Best place to land
C-Emergency Checklist
D-Declare an emergency and 7700
E-Execute the plan!
V speeds for da20?
Flaps 15 T/O and speed 73 for best gliding performance.
You forgot to set flaps T/O - DA20 has best gliding perfomance on flaps t/o and 73 kts

No. It's 73 Clean, 60 kts with Flaps T/O but you'll only get your best glide 1:11 with clean flaps.
