...also of interest is training the dual engine flameout after departure - as demonstrated by Sullenberger (and Ryanair @ CIA) - that's where the birdstrikes happen. We practice a profile with dual failure at 2.800ft - too low for a turnback - and it generally works well (although you can imagine what the wreckage would look like if it were to happen for real)
