TEACH your students emergncy proccedures!!!I mean really teach them, drill them into their heads, practice them! I was thinking about this, of the last 5 cfi's ive flown with 1 asked me the emergncy procedure for engine failure and actually wanted me to demonstrate and off field landing!

Why am I asking this? We lost two more of our pilot family yesterday, the really sad thing was the CFI was a MASTER CFI. In what appears to be a loss of power, and spin into the ground from 200 feet on takeoff!
A 150 with full flaps you should have been able to ride in back to the ground and step out of it????
