It appears from the report that the plane passed through the overhead. I'm a PPL who flies a PA28 and if I was in the overhead I would expect to be able to glide in, even with no engine.

Can someone tell me if this is not possible in something like a Citation? Do you need to extend so far out from the field that gliding onto the runway is not an option?

Apologies if this is a stupid question, but I have no experience of flying anything bigger than a PA28.
