>> This month's Flying magazine has an article (copy attached) about a Velocity accident in 2009. The plane lost a prop blade and this author believes the pilot mistook the violent shaking to be flutter, pulled abruptly on the stick, put the plane into a deep stall, and had no way to use engine power to break the stall.
