That's not too clever.

Maybe a temporary fuel starvation after all those downward spirals ? (Just sent that link to a mate at work who is going up for a pleasure flight in a Tiger Moth later this month... should scare him to death =)) :ymdevil: )

Strangely the accompaning narrative fails to mention a couple of things;

1. Hans altimeter requires resetting! ;)

2. The massive cleaning bill for the three occupants of the car! :-o
