Appreciate the comments about JF but seeing as the thread is about gliding technique after a power loss, I will try to get it back on track and hopefully we can keep it there.

I re recently read an article about power loss in high drag aircraft in the ultralight world where they have relatively small inertia compared to the jets or the C182 on floats. The link is here.....

There seems to be difficulty picking up speed and potentially stalling if the flare is too early. Any opinions on this article or related info would be welcome.
