Don’t know the glide rat offhand, but she doesn’t like you fumbling around for anything in a loss of power scenario.
Your attention comes off maintaining a good clean course, and stuff happens, rapidly.
As JD found out.

Three things he could have done different: proper fuel selector placement, proper fuel selector, cart enough fuel.

My missus liked him.
I found him to be annoying and narcolepsy inducing.

Sounds like pilot error. Were he skilled, he coulda likely survived a controlled crash.
