We put the LNC2 through its paces and came up with a dirty configuration circle to land stabalized approach descending at 500fpm at 70KTIS. It stalls at 63KTIS and stops very quickly on a gravel strip with outback gear. I was impressed with the short run. Thus I know that we can survive and probably the plane also with that kind of emergency landing situation. I was at about 35 gallons of fuel and two FAA bodies. My normal approach over the numbers is about 78-80 KTIS.
