Engine failure at night

This is a rather entertaining Flash presentation from the AOPA Real Pilot series. I'm sure all you other AOPA members got the same email I did, but I figured I'd post it. It has some great photos of engine destruction, and a feel-good story of ATC/pilot cooperation during an emergency.

Re: Engine failure at night

Was told that if the engine quits while flying at night to aim your for the lightest dark spot while landing.
