Glide Ratio
I am just curious what other aircraft out there get as far as glide ratio's are concerned. I know some high performance gliders are capable of glide ratio's on the order of 36:1, or so I've read, I have no glider experience. The PC12 I fly travels 2.6 miles for every 1,000 feet lost in its glide. That seems to work out to a glide ratio of 13.728:1. I don't have any POH's other than for the Pilatus on hand and I'm curious what other aircraft out there get for an (all)engine(s) out glide ratio.
