A Cessna 208 Caravan crashed on Vancouver Island near the town of Port
Alberni killing the pilot and Two passangers. According to the local news
the pilot had radioed a Mayday declaring that he had an engine failure and
was going to attempt a dead-stick landing on a logging road but he didn't
make it and the plane crashed at a 60 degree nose down attitude. The pilot
was 25 years old. At this time I don't know how many hours he had.


60-degrees nose down indicates to me that he may have stalled it.
