Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
Sobering. But I wonder what prompted those crazy maneuvers? And with a CFI on board, no less.
My .02: This accident started long before the stall happened. We don't know what they were trying to do with that maneuvering, but it doesn't seem from the data that they did either. It was a bad plan from the start. If you need 60+ degree banks to line up with the runway, you've already failed. Go around and try again.
My argument falls apart a bit if the engine wasn't running, but that didn't seem to be the case in this crash.
Why is that bikini chick in all these aviation "Related videos" at the end of everything?
This calls for "Pull the chute" comments.
