What makes you so certain it was an aerodynamic stall? That type of stall
normally does not cause a crash.

You're trying to apply your limited knowledge to the rest of the world
again.

Stalls certainly do cause crashes. BTW, when the engine 'stalls', we call it
an engine failure, to avoid confusion.

The stalling of an engine, however, which is apparently what the passenger
mentioned, could easily cause a crash or
make one more likely.

If the passenger had any flight experience, which is likely for any GA
passenger, they too would have used the correct term (engine failure).
