Sorry Trentino, I had read your post differently as you obviously meant it.
Agree also on your remark for the 180@1000ft , but too many tried this regardless of the wind and ended in a a stall , forgetting that at 45 degr bank with a windmilling prop your Vs is not the same.
Also a C172, of all aircraft, with a dead engine and 30 or even 40 deg flaps ( as recommended by Cessna !) is not known for his gliding abilities.
