Re: NewCal Aviation de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou Crashes in Test Flight
Looks like an elevator trim stall really!!Could have easily have been from too heavy a downwash onto the horizontal stabilizers resulting in an unrecoverable pitch attitude or just elevator trim being too nose up! Either way---scary way to go!

Re: NewCal Aviation de Havilland Canada DHC-4 Caribou Crashes in Test Flight
Years ago when I first saw this I read that the pilot was the prime cause. He was known by other pilots that he regularly didn't follow the rules of good practice, esp. during take of and landing using daring techniques.
