Wow, all those passengers dead because the pilot didn’t do what even a student pilot knows to do, let the nose down to recover from a stall. Very

What would you do if the airspeed was increasing at the same time the stall warning was sounding, and the PFD had rapid fluctuations? Nothing is as easy as it seems, afterward. On the ground.

Absolutely, positively put the nose down & chopped the power. - The aircraft is falling out of the sky - thats why the airspeed is increasing.

I damn near pinked my first exam for not doing that quickly enough, & although I agree with you that nothing is as it seems on the ground, they did have 4 minutes to correct and you know thats a very long time.

Agreed, its a lot easier to figure things out safe and on the ground. I had to make an emergency landing due to carbuertor icing, because after the engine quit and I went through the emergency procedure, when I got to pull on carb heat for some reason my mind said “naw, that couldn’t be it” and didn’t pull the heat on. Fortunately I had lots of altitude and was able to find an abandoned ranch air strip to land on, and the ranchers 4 dobermans were locked up in their kennel.
