Slash... I guess it's also true to say that you were ready for this simulated emergency. How many pilots would ever be quite
THAT ready for such a situation? I guess that, if you have the opportunity again in the near future, can you try a few seconds delay ... to simulate the standard first call in the emergency checklist -
Sh!t... WTF was THAT??!
Perhaps end up needing something more like 1800 FT eh? But then I'm guessing you may run into the "tyranny of distance" problem in getting back to the runway...
