Remember, also, when practising engine failures, that the fuel scheduling characteristics of both piston and turbine engines are such that simply rolling off the throttle quickly may NOT replicate a true failure! i.e. you are protected from a 'lean cut' or flame out, and so the engine RPM decays more slowly that it may in real life.
