Did I mention thinking that very briefly - once it quit, I found I really missed the sputtering!!

Ended up at 400 feet, full power, clean, 2 miles out and still descending. Crossed the fence, still clean and at full power with the controller yelling "gear, gear, gear". The clunk of the gear preceded the thump of touchdown by about a second. It took quite a few beers to get over that one. :)
