Default RE: engine question

One way of looking at wingloading is how well the plane will float. A trainer, Stinger and such have very low wing loading and they will float pretty good. My prop jet has a load of 33 which mean if that engine quits, its comin down now and I better have some altitude or be in final when it does.
