Looks like plenty of options ahead heading West. Anyone got any pics heading the other way? Being on top of a hill does give a little more time though - all suggesting a 'straight ahead' landing below approx 1000'AAL when turning back becomes an reasonable possibility. Not familiar with the Tiger's glide performance but not great I would think compared to PA 28 or similar. Anyway, important to do some serious thinking about such catastrophic failures before they happen. RIP chaps.
