Firewall it for speed and altitude while you still have fuel then coast down, and if you can glide over an airfield at 10,000'+ AGL you should be able to make a deadstick landing. If you're lower, try a teardrop approach crossing the field at ~135 degrees off the runway heading, or if real low you'll have to try a straight in. If you're high/have extra energy, use your boards to control descent rate. Good practice for airmanship - similar to the F-4's f-16 Block 50-52 Emergency Procedures.pdf 4 1
