1 tell atc your of failure, no emergency
I agree, but the emergency part was my instructor's call. He's the one who has to deal with insurance, covering his butt if things go further south, and explaining his actions to the owner of the school.
2 TC is out whoopti doo....10% of airspeed plus 5 will give you a standard rate turn
Absolutely! We were more concerned with the TC's function as a back-up for the vacuum gyros.
3 land at whichever airport you want
Again, more my instructor's call than mine. He went for the nearest airport for the same reasons as in #1.
4 haven't you flown partial panel?
All the time! In fact, probably more often than not . . .
