“The cause of the crash is under investigation.”

Cranial-rectal inversion.  You’re welcome, NTSB.

There's a lot of banner tow at North Perry.  I'm disappointed that
with that level of stick & rudder skill around, this crap can happen.

The white shirt is a dead giveaway, I suppose.

After touchdown, note the use of right aileron - creating adverse yaw to the left -
instead of the use of

right rudder ... Right Rudder ... RIGHT RUDDER!

Who needs basic stick & rudder skills, if all you're going to do is wear a
white shirt and push buttons?

The amount of time that this student spent at high alpha can probably be
conveniently measured in seconds.

There will be no new causes of aviation accidents in 2019, just replays
of previous ones that no one is interested in:

Note to 21st Centuryâ„¢ pilots:  there is a difference between a control column
and the steering wheel in a car.

I personally detest control columns.  Stick in the right hand, throttle in the left,
feet on the rudder pedals.

I'm still working on not treating the yoke like a steering wheel. I'm vastly better than a few years ago but just don't fly enough.

I like the rudder. I might even over use it. :(

The shirt may be white but I wager the seat is brown!
