Question

This is the sort of accident which COULD occur when practicing simulated engine out when an aircraft would be in slow flight close to the ground. If the airspeed was allowed to reduce below cruise, the aircraft could enter a stall, and, at 400ft agl, there would be little time for recovery. This is just my guess but the NTSB are very thorough and we may have to wait anything up to a year for the final report.
