I have suffered 2 engine failures during my flying, both as an =
Instructor Pilot, both in a U-1A Otter. One was empty and we simply =
turned and landed on the crosswind runway, the other was on a GCA, at =
night, with 9 passengers. I was in the right seat, which was not height =
adjustable, so I instructed the pilot to fly the airplane all the way to =
the ground, full flaps, and go between the trees if necessary. He did =
exactly that and the only injury was one of the passengers scraped his =
shin as he exited the aircraft. The landing light is out on the left =
wing, so we never saw the olive tree we hit with the right wing, just at =
touchdown and spun 90 degrees to the right tearing off the main landing =
gear. The point is, "FLY THE AIRPLANE ALL THE WAY TO THE GROUND!!! =
Everything else is secondary.
