3D synthetic vision, huh?

Engine failure in IMC with ice.

I believe that's one of the Patey twins.

I believe you are correct.

 

[Katamarino]

Seemed to handle it well. Better to pass ATC too much info rather than too little, I guess.

Eeeeeek!!

Well if this guy has ADHD I think he more than demonstrated his ability to handle an emergency.

Stress reaction. Cut the guy a break. It would have been more entertaining if he told the controller what color underwear he had on. About as useful as well.

 

[SkyDog58]

Awesome and impressive.

 

[James331]

Good job handling it.

 

[Brad Smith]

Impressive performance under stress. Glad it turned out good. Did he say best glide was 165?

Both Patey twins are fantastic pilots.

Yeah, gotta google "Draco" to see the million-dollar bush plane.

I had never heard of the twins until I read this thread. I'm impressed.

Oh I’m very familiar with Draco. Watched his whole build series on it. Fascinating.

Saw it at Osh this year. A beast!!

I read in one of the links in this thread that the twins have ADHD. I am ignorant of the facts, but very curious about how they became certificated pilots.

This is why I said "Eeeeek!!" in response to that link. I was eeeeeking for fear that if the FAA did not know about the ADHD then the twins are in great danger somebody is going to take a screenshot the article and send it to the local FSDO and they will be getting a call from Ad*m whatshisface.

Gonna bet that they were never drugged for it, which could be a help.
