Default RE: Twin engine Ryobi..... B-25

Peter.... I never mind hashing over a crash if it helps others in the future. I am guarded on my comments on this however as I asked a friend to fly it as I could not at the time ( physically ). I don't ever want to cast a shadow his way for him trying to help me. That being said....
It seemed to pull out smartly, a good portion of flap was deployed and I believe that it lifted off earlier than it should have and pitched up which eventually caused a couple of huge porpose effects and finally contacting the ground under full throttle and pretty well nose down. Not a pretty scene! E-mail me and I will send you a file that I wrote soon after the episode. Memory always changes things with time so I wrote and saved the file..
