Hi David, not sure if you ever had an interest in flying but try some flight simulators ( the serious ones, wacha those silly one where one can fly on endless fuel ) and check out how stressful a stall can be to correct. One one trip to west africa a few years ago, my hats off to a KQ pilot who must have had thermal vision radar in his head, as the landing approach was completely covered in fog, heavy rain and the runway was slippery with many patches of rain water. This guy got the plane down, though I could tell by flaps noise and engine revs he was struggling to keep it straight. On touchdown, he engaged reverse thrust longer than usual. Pilots go through very stressful situations. I was just glad to get out of plane but left a note for him with a hostess. Job well done!
