That aircraft should never have been equipped with flaps.... or at least have the last notch removed....

It's a fun aircraft by the way.... during my checkride, the assessor decided to have me do the 15 degree flaps, 1500 rpm and stall it..... guess who was taken completely by surprise when the aircraft flipped.... noone told me it would do that during training.

(I passed by the way, he just wanted to see me handle the flip)
