Woooahhh...that test was done 35 years ago and yet the conclusion holds
true today! Therein lies/lays the problem in todays flying! What has happened to those skills? I can vividly recall my primary instructor reducing power and saying, "show me what ya got.." Then he said you can reduce it, but not increase it. Hae used that same scenario ever since. So many times that I ran into difficulties when I could not get more power and had to do with what I had. My whole thing is to fly the edges of the aircraft envelope at both ends of the spectrum. Generally though, the lower speeds are where most pilots run into problems and have the serious accidents.when they do the silly stall/spin thing. Silly because it should never happen. Serious of course when people get hurt or killed. Stupid when the pilot fails to get the proper training. arrggghhh Ol SOB |
