Well enough. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimli_Glider > In 10 nautical miles (19 km; 12 mi) the aircraft lost 5,000 feet (1,500 m), giving a glide ratio of approximately 12:1 (dedicated glider planes reach ratios of 50:1 to 70:1). > Air Canada Flight 143 came to a final stop on the ground 17 minutes after running out of fuel. |
