My father flew a twin engine D'Havilland many years ago when the engines cut at 500 ft. Being an experienced pilot he landed without incident. But it was some time before D'Havilland would admit that it was NOT pilot error. It happens. Love LIGHT and healing to Carrie and her boyfriend.

In mid air the engine of the plane suddenly stalled, for no apparent reason. In a few seconds the rpm dropped to zero, and they dropped like a rock.

Sorry to hear about the crash, hope they will do well.

But this seems inaccurate. Small aircrafts don’t drop like a rock on engine failure, unless it’s already a stall situation, to my knowledge. Can someone clarify this?
