To open yet another debate I also agree with being able to turn a motor off completely, while overhead an airstrip and carry out a practise forced landing all the way to touchdown. This should only be done with a CFI on board and at a suitable strip that has safe options, at a time when it will not affect other traffic. I have done this and believe it is worthwhile to experience it. Having done it in a controlled & supervised fashion will help reduce the shock & possible panic when it eventually happens for real.

I wonder if powered approaches are letting pilots land without that ground rush sensation that you need to hold the nose down through to land safely without throttle?

On a recent flight from YBAF - YDUN, overhead Cleveland at 2000, Bne Cen alerted me to the fact another plane was passing 300ft below me. I hadn't contacted them with intentions before that, but it was comforting to know someone was watching!

I'll sell mine for $40

the Thangool fly in has been postponed to the 1&2 October.Hope the weather gods are kind to us that week end.
