If you deduct height for realising that you do indeed have a dead engine that won't re-start, then a bit more for a turn towards the most suitable field, then keep a bit more in reserve for lining up and dropping into the field over any trees or wires.

You started with 1000ft.

How much have you got left?

In nil wind, how much gliding distance does that give you?
