Here's a new video of a dead stick landing taken from a gyro. Hopefully it will work for you. Engine is turned off in the first 5 seconds of the vid...

Nice job Kip! Your gyro friend did a good job of recording it as well.
Curious as to what your AGL was when you shut down.
Crude numbers from shut down...
2 minute to complete approx 450 deg turn and enter "downwind", (check the attached image for the down angle)
+ 15 sec to base,
+ 15 sec turning final and
+ 17 sec to touchdown. (final time )
2 min 42 sec total.
Overall.... impressive. Thanks for sharing.

Hi, George. Shutdown was at about 2200' AGL. I was not real consistent with holding speed but I could have probably stayed up longer had I concentrated on a minimum sink speed...
I really bounced the landing because I was watching the gyro!
