Ascalon Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I wonder if there was some kind of failure? That was obviously a practised manoeuvre, and the pilot should have been able to recover with a full after burn. Still, a bit embarrassing. I bet he got a ribbing when he turned up for afternoon cocktails at the officers club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a stall/spin obviously, but it sounded like he was on full noise and something like that should get up and go no matter what the wings are doing. So to paraphrase. Dunno. This actually happened a while ago and here's some more info on it. https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/wiki.php?id=75895 Basically, he went to climb away but one engine worked and the other didn't. The asymmetric thrust pitched him into a spin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
