I happy to see in the data some successful dead stick landings.

Agree that there are others not so successful, but what is the difference that training could have made the difference?

Is it simply the experience in a practice scenario or is it the luck of the highly variable last seconds?

From my view a lot of the lack of success were things like catching a tree, water or car with one wing and setting up a cartwheel.
