Default RE: My first deadstick!

Wow! Third solo flight and you get stuck with a deadstick landing ????!?!??!? That's just ROTTEN LUCK [:@]
..... it's also the reason why they should make underwear in shades of brown

But it sounds like you handled it like a champ so CONGRATULATIONS !!!!!!!!!!!!!! No broken plane, No foul ! You must have had a really good instructor who drilled some good emergency procedures into your head or you're just a natural at flying. I'm so new to this that I can't imagine what that situation will be like and I hope it's more than a little while until I have to find out. I also hope I handle it as well as you did
