Fatal loss of control

First Rule of Flying - Fly the Airplane.

Second Rule of Flying - Never run out of airspeed, altitude and ideas.

Third Rule of Flying - If you're not constantly planning for an engine failure, you're busy planning for the worst possible outcome when things go sideways.

Fourth Rule of Flying - If you're going to crash, crash at the airport; you're closer to the firetrucks and paramedics.

“If you're faced with a forced landing, fly the thing as far into the crash as possible”
- Bob Hoover

“Fly The Thing”......ie: do NOT piss away maneuvering speed so as to stall, spin, splat......
