... I like the report that says the plane's engine stalled, and then it went into a tailspin! I suppose the same reporter would say it did a "wheelie" on takeoff! Yea, a tailspin is an interesting maneuver. I think that means that the tail of the airplane went into a spin, whereas the rest of the plane was still on level flight. Which is a logical reason for going down, given that probably the tail wasn't attached to the airplane anymore. Anybody has a better insight about tailspins?
