Ahhhhhh, plane crashes!!!

Well, I happened to get a kick out o' mine... Of course me and my buddy got in alot of trouble for breakin' my dad's best friends Cub in half but, hey, we were 16 years old and 16 year olds look at things kinda differnt than growed ups...

But back to the stall that Brucie went thru... Engines rarely just quit on ya' but all pilots have to learn and relearn stallin' engines and restarting them by dropping the nose down which causes the prop to spin quick enough to restart most engines so...

Now stallin' small planes can be somewhat disconcerting if you ain't been thru that so my brother used to love to do it when we were flyin' just to try to scare me... Yeah right, bro...

So we were heading down to Nags Head about 20 years ago in a 210 Cesna Turbo... The ceiling was 2000 feet so we never got it up high enough to use the turbo... Now stalling small planes, like I said is disconcerting... They rattle and shudder and then once you get under the stall speed theres a loud warning bell.. So my brother (licensed pilot) gave me (unlicensed pilot) a course heading and said he was going to take a little nap... Hey, what was I to do??? So waited until he nodded off, pulled back on the yoke and put a little scare into him... Boy, was he ever pissed...

Too bad, Stevie... Don't mess with yer ol' hillbilly brother...
