Scary Thread

I know it sounds daft, particularly in the context of this thread, but I had taken away from my training the 'generic' EFATO procedure, and had just "walked it through" at homebase during refreshers and practice.

I agree with Genghis. The more technical points discussed in this thread will not be in the average PPL's mind when all suddenly goes quiet up front.

I suspect that for many "hobby" pilots the practice that would increase survival chances is to check out the geography of the airfield you're visiting and plan what would happen if you had an EFATO in that specific location. e.g. checkout the local procedures.

Thinking about this further, I do not remember seeing many EFATO procedures displayed on local club/airfield notice boards.
