Cheers * *Can be, but can't be under normal conditions. Ice will do it, as could unlimited aerobatics, but the average FAR 23 airplane is certified for neither. As you agreed earlier COG out of limits can lead to it too. The key here is that the statement "never" is incorrect. Any plane can have it's elevator stalled, I agree that may be bad thing to happen but it can happen none the less. I would not put much faith in FARs preventing such things if I were you :-P Cheers
