I vividly remember the first time I flew with a constant pitch prop. I
had not yet gotten an STC
to use my hand controls in the C150 so my instructor and I decided to
transition to the C172.
She stressed and stressed and stressed what TO do and NOT to do with
regards to the pitch
control. Yet sure enough, while on final I did it wrong. If Clare had
not been with me, and not
been as good as she is, I surely would have "bought it". I've never seen
a hand move so fast
in my life.

Now granted, it was my first time, and I was low time anyway, but Tony's
right. It only takes one.
Please folks...Let's be careful out there.

EVERYONE: learn from his error.
It doesn't matter how many hours you log- it only takes ONE mistake.
