An accident happened about twenty years ago or so and was reported in A= viation Safety. It's one that you never forget because the perfectly r= unning Cessna slammed into mountainous terrain while basically flying straig= ht and level. The female occupant ended up with her head somewhere und= er the pilot side instrument panel and the pilot's clothing was in sufficien= t disarray that the diagnosis was fairly clear. You just have to wonde= r after all these years if he was able to achieve the happy ending before th= e lights went out. No report in the article about body fluids so we ar= e left to ponder.

Darwin awards are always there for the winning.

Sounds un-professional and a lack of good judgement= in this model of high performance aircraft doing 5 miles a minute. You can'= t safely fly if you are not mentally engaged.

Has anyone joined that Club in a Lancair, and how did you manage throttle/pr= op/mixture (especially LOP operations) during the membership drive? An= y autopilot issues? Other insights would be interesting.

I recently completed my annual recurrency with LOBO, but I didn't discuss th= is crew resource management issue with my instructor.
