it might be hard for non-pilots to understand, but that’s exactly the reminder every pilot needs to hear when they’ve nearly lost all hope. an airplane without an engine hasn’t stopped flying. Your airplane is a glider, probably a terrible glider, but it’s still got wings. But as long as you the pilot keep flying the airplane, managing whatever energy (altitude+speed) is left the best you can until you land, you still have a chance. We practice “engine out” procedures, but in the moment the real thing is scary as hell. “Keep flying” is a reminder that you’re still in control, do not give up, keep flying until you’re on the ground and stopped.

Never fly a single engine plane at night unless you absolutely must. The risk of engine out is always the same no matter what time you fly, but at night the reality you can't see the ground will be a ugly reality. At night While you are flying, and the engine is running all is good and the lack of visibility below, with only a few scatter lights seems ok. But his engine quit and at that moment He sounded like he was looking into the black abyss at 1600 ft . and gave up, realizing that by the time he can see the ground he will have no time to pick a safe spot. He had no idea where is was and little knowledge of the area as frequent fliers of that area do. Even if he was from area, he certainly did not fly enough to have the ground imprinted in his head. It looked like the abyss to him. He never should have gave up. If you are going to die, die trying like hell not to die

Flying a single engine aircraft over a city at night, one would not want to be at a low altitude as in this case, when/if the engine should stop, virtually no options for a safe landing would be likely. Altitude is like a insurance policy, it's energy that could aid one in a engine out situation. Don't fly like the engine will never stop, you never know, so plan with this in mind before you kick the tires head off somewhere.

Single engine and at night is a far greater risk for sure and one better know he can count on the reliability of the machine,, I grew up flying with my father frequently as he owned two single engine aircraft and later a twin too. He was his own mechanic too and he was good. He never hurt anyone in his lifetime of flying 43 years, but he was a commercial pilot very professional, with a private pilot the training & aptitude may be insufficient for the intended flight. The skills of a pilot are perishable if one fly's infrequently. Sad story here.

Altitude is essential in a single or a light twin at night. The Saratoga glides between 900 to 1200 fpm based on gear and prop, so from 1000 feet you won't have more than a minute. At night a minimum of 2000 AGL would be wise.

On or along a lighted freeway/road can work, but he needed to put it down with the proper glide speed to control the plane.
