Default RE: Unfortunate crash video of a new DeHavilland Mosquito Twin



Hey cappaj1,

I did get the feeling he was pretty low. But also real fast. So I couldn't tell how high he climbed at the end before stalling. He slowed down to nothing at the end. I don't know why, but many people tend to do that. They climb and climb and get real slow. I guess its natural to try and get high when something is wrong. But with twins the answer is to get "fast". Like I said, things happen so fast, it isn't fair to second guess a pilot.

Those tappered wings are killers.
