Hey everyone,

If you choose to watch this video make sure that you are ready for it. Though it is nothing that wouldn't be seen on TV it really had a chilling effect on me as I am from the west and just got back from several seminars at Oshkosh regarding proper Mountain Flying technique.

This should serve as a reminder of exactly what NOT to do if in a situation such as this. Find a survivable spot and hit it as slow as you can. An airplane needs only 12 feet to stop and be survivable as long as the cabin is intact. Spinning into trees is not going to end well.

Cheers,
