@thegforcejourney: Aircraft wings are designed so that if both engines fail at high altitude, the plane essentially becomes a large glider. It can glide for a significant distance—potentially hundreds of miles—depending on its altitude and glide ratio, giving pilots time to find a safe place to land. Modern planes have strong glide capabilities, meaning they can travel a long way forward for every foot of altitude lost. Pilots are trained to lower the nose immediately to maintain a smooth, controlled descent. Don’t worry, flying a plane is safer than driving a car. @thegforcejourney (https://www.instagram.com/thegforcejourney/)
