Ahhh tinpis they were the days....prolly the same bloke did that to me years after you(the guy who died in the last year in his C185 ex GKA?).

It wasn't a Vmca demo it was an (aggravated) assy stall demo...thanks to the altitude effecting the thrust and therefore the real Vmca being below Vs...but it sure was 'interesting'.

Don't remember recovery being a big deal as long as both engines were at idle....well one was idle and one was 'cut off'...as long as you don't consider upside down a big deal
