On YouTube, i just saw the video of the Hawker Hurricane accident at  Shoreham.

  

 It looks like he attempted a Slip S.  Hit a accelerated stall at  about the 60 degree nose down point.  The broke right about 20 degrees and  looked like it went in at that angle.  It happened very quickly.  Good  guy and airplane gone.

  

 Guys the earth and aerodynamics don't know your name or who you are.   They are unforgiving of violations.

I hesitate to add anything to this, but since I enjoy low level

aerobatics quite a bit, I will pass on something that has kept me from

becoming a statistic many times, and will most people if followed

properly.  



When you are close to the ground, and you are going to do anything other

than straight and level flight, always direct your energy "up", and

never DOWN.  



It's a simple saying really... But it happened to stick in my mind, and

I have always adhered to it except when practicing something new, and

have carefully gained a LOT of altitude before attempting anything

"new".  



The infamous movie clip of a YAK-52 performing a Split S to landing is

an example of just the OPPOSITE of what is described above.  



So unless you are a world class aerobatic pilot, if you follow the

"directed energy" rule when showing off, you stand a much better chance

to live through it and brag about it later.  



This is not a lecture.  It's just passing on something that has saved my

life more than once.
