Pilots, do stalls raise your stress levels? For some, it's actually a fear of stalls. This often leads to poor, or inefficient recoveries. Pilots also do things such as adding 10 knots to their approach speed due to a fear of stalling (not good). Incomplete or poor instruction is one of the causes of stall apprehensions. Some instructors have this fear of stalls also. Unacceptable!

If you want some tips on stalls and better recoveries from someone who has done many THOUSANDS of stalls, check out the free paper, '11 Tips For Better Airplane Stall Recoveries' by Master CFI-Aerobatic Mike "Cuckoo" Kloch.

Mission accomplished. Congratulations to Louis, who received his A-36 Bonanza today in Ft Lauderdale, FL, courtesy of SAW and Nick Thomsen. Nick did a great job of navigating winter weather from Prineville, OR to Florida. It was a 2-1/2 day trip, with lots of great scenery accross the southern portions of the US.

We have another very happy customer, just the way it should be. Great work Nick!
