Andy -- Many thanks for this incredibly useful resource--far beyond the current issue too.

"Stall spin" usually means low altitude maneuvering. A stall spin at 5000' doesn't usually result in an accident. And all the ones I have looked at, the stall spin is the last link on a long accident chain involving increasing desperation and very low altitude maneuvering.

I believe I only count stall/spin when it terminates at the ground. Stall/spin not on TO or LDG almost always is in the mountains. There are a few of those.

Updated the fatal accident database through 2017 for the morbidly analytical.
