I'll get right on installing a mahogany wood one on there

Don't pushers handle differently than conventional planes?

The airframe reacts different at a high power setting, but it’s not something that is generally a concern. Usually pusher configuration crashes are due to the engine overheating

or live with the shame, your choice

I thought one of the selling points of that plane was it wouldn't stall very easily.

It’s harder to stall than most. But guy was low, slow, and in a bank. The only times I’ve done something similar was to enter a spin. And he may have done that

Isn't a T tail a bit more tricky to fly?

I can't remember the name, but I saw some home-built pusher kits at an airshow here quite a few years ago.

Very sleek, and supposedly very dangerous.

and too low to recover?

I have no shame, don't believe in it

More susceptible to a Dutch roll

People just get complacent

I won’t induce a spin below 5000 feet. He was less than 500

 

[oldngray]

I remember when the VariViggens came out they were supposedly stall proof.

then ride it out

I bet @Operational needs googled that before you did.

For once, no. So not interested in plane lingo. Lol.

I won’t fly a “stall proof” plane. Cirrus is supposed to be that way and people die in them because they think they’re free to do anything
