When I did the sim on the 76B at West Palm, the only thing taught for a drive failure from any altitude was throttles-idle auto
Twas taught in that very same building AC, A sim.

A thread I started some time ago.

I'm struggling with a 140+Knot running landing on a narrow tricycle undercarriage
Recall a 76 making a somewhat high speed landing as a result of T/R issues. Drive or control don't recall, went off the side of RW, kept it upright. Written up in R & W I think, many years ago.
