bubbers is right about sim training vs real world.

and I sure do remember the KORD DC10 incident /accident, biggest single plane loss of life in the USA aviation.

Reno and stagnation...boy oh boy you are in a hard place there. I've needed full power to maintain glideslope during approach! And the A hole ahead of me had the same thing and didn't report windshear. We did as soon as we were on the ground under control, and dimwit ahead says: YEAH, we had that too. Thanks pal!


Putting a bit of trim in as soon as you recognize the engine out isn't a bad idea...you might even want to learn the exact setting...we are talking sim here. When one MUSCLE LOCKS UP THERE LEG HOLDING rudder pressure, one will have a problem very soon.

remember of course, as you accelerate, less rudder will be needed.

and during engine out landing, we were encouraged to have NFP take out rudder trim as we reduced thrust in the flare.

U should always be trimming. U are in better touch with the plane than muscling it. Finese.
