Yeah I almost had a nose-down situation, I was doing low inverted fly-bys
down the runway.. Started at about 5' second pass 3'.. Then the peanut
gallery:-) started yelling, lower, lower... Well I came back around and was
at or under a foot off the runway and about halfway through the pass a slight
cross wind/thermal caught my wing, I corrected ok but I guess in doing so I
let some "pressure" off the stick and she headed downwards.. Knowing I
could not just slam the stick I slowly pushed it out but not until the vert.
stab got about an inch off the runway... I came around and landed.. I
had to take a break after that.. Sure gets your blood pumping:-)

Wow,

My heart was thumping just getting the visual on that one. [sm=spinnyeyes.gif]
