2. Engine failure after takeoff and under 500 ft AGL: Nose down IMMEDIATELY, full flaps, land wherever possible
3. Engine failure above 500 ft AGL: Standard procedure - which I then go through.
You are not interfering at all, not as far as I am concerned anyway. Your self briefing is better than nothing and many PPL’s don’t bother at all! How do you think your briefing could be improved, have you missed anything out? Asking these sort of questions prevents sitting on an experience plateau.
