The presently disclosed subject matter includes, inter alia, a system, a method and a computer program product of autonomous descent of an aircraft (e.g. UAV), with a non-operating engine, from a current position to a desired position in the sky. The disclosed subject matter can be used for example for enabling a UAV with a non-operating engine to glide from a point of engine failure detection through an exit point of a descending spiral to a landing window. Once the landing window has been reached, the aircraft can execute an autonomous landing procedure and land at a selected landing site notwithstanding engine failure, and also a possible uplink communication failure. |
