Posted for "Bill Kennedy" <bill_kennedy_3@hotmail.com>:
I used to wonder in amazement that anyone could possibly be involved in a 
stall/spin accident. It seemed to me that even rudimentary familiarity from 
BFR training would give a pilot the tools needed to add power, ease off the 
controls, keep the ball centered and fly another day.

Thanks to this forum, I know the problem is not just a lack of training, but 
an absolute refusal to train.

Please help keep my insurance costs down. If you don't know how to recognise 
and fly out of an impending stall, please train with a competent instructor. 
You are knocking a death's door every time you land. The belief that you have 
stategies and equipment to avoid stalls may be a comfort to you, but it is a 
terrible fiction.
