Although the plane had nothing to do with the flight school it would be very unwelcome advertising if you asked me.

there is only a couple of places in the traffic pattern that in the event of an engine failure you couldn't make it back to the runway.
on the upwind leg on initial climb is one of them - at least for the first 80% of the leg. thats probably where he was when the fan quit.
