I just went on a short x-country with 3 friends to have dinner. It was
night as we returned in my Cessna 170. One was asleep in the back. I told the others I could put us in a spin and us 3 would could scream like we were going to die as the sleeper woke up in the middle of a spin. We voted not to. Danny Dot www.mobbinggonemad.org |

It isn't approved for spins with all the seat full.
Why not just land and have your friends lift the tail up, after the prop has stopped and balance it on the nose, the scream. "Danny Dot" wrote in message news ![]() dinner.

Danny Dot www.mobbinggonemad.org One night driving to Florida my buddy was a sleep in the passenger seat and I think we were the only vehicle in the area, I slammed on the brakes (we both had belts on) and screamed! I laughed my ass off, he didn't think it was near as funny, but I'm a huge dick. ----------------------------------------- DW |

He locked up the brakes on the highway and spun the car 360 degrees. I woke up in the middle. |

I had a passenger sleeping while I was following one of those large tow trucks that was towing a semi-tractor by its tail. She woke up and screamed at first until she realized we weren't on a collision course with the semi. Sure startled me... |

One day I janked the parking brake from the passenger seat when half way in a turn, that was fun. Put the driver seat in the most forward position when (s)he is out for fuelling or something. While you are at it, turn the fan to max., turn on the wipers at full speed and if the power for the radio is switched on by the key put the volume on max. Fun if the key is turned. And do not forget to off set the rear view mirrors. When waiting for traffic lights put the car in neutral without the driver noticing, works best with manual gear. -Kees. |

I had a kid scream a few seconds before landing in a C182 "we're going to crash!!!" I remember thinking, humm, I don't think my landings are that bad, does he see another plane??...then I realized he wasn't used to the sight angle out the front of a Cessna in a steep descent with 40 degrees flaps. I've had other pax ask if something is wrong when the throttle is pulled back on downwind. An instructor told me that one time slipping a plane to landing, his wife thought they were going to crash. Makes you realize that what to pilots are perfectly normal things, to pax may be their last moments. -- "Like car accidents, most hardware problems are due to driver error." |

Never say, "Fasten your seat belts, we're going down."
Better say, "Fasten your seatbelt, I'm getting ready to land." even if you're going down.
