You guys do realize that in a glider ALL your landings are dead stick, right??

Fifty years ago, everybody did dead stick landings. We flew until the engine quit because we only had one channel. It was over 10 years before I had a model with a motor that would idle low enough to land. Thirty years ago, I was the club instructor and made all my students learn dead stick landings before starting landings with the engine running. That way they couldn't panic and jam on power at touchdown and cartwheel the model.
