I really like this guy's videos, from a soaring PoV, but this one in particular is aimed at how GA pilots should deal with engine failure and land out scenarios ...

 

Cessna Engine Failure Out-Landing: Glider Instructor Reacts! - YouTube

 

With the advent of FS 2020 and the extraordinary level of detail the simulator can offer in as far as scenery goes, I have been actively using it to debrief some of my RW soaring sessions, specially those that somehow bring me near the limits to opt for an out-landing... FS 2020 is very good at least over the areas I usually fly IRL, to prepara for this sort of emmergencies by getting familiar with the terrain because it really has an almost true to life representation of the real world.
