We watched the movie "Trapped" recently. The good guy had a
floatplane (C182?). I thought that was cool. Then he had to
take a phone call while flying. He pulled the engine so that
the bad guy wouldn't know he was in a plane, but he had to
shove it into a 1,000-3,000 fpm dive! He did it twice - once
over water and once over land. He barely made it each time.

Those floatplanes are *dangerous*!

No - cutting the engine to take a phone call is *dangerous*
