Then you get that pilot in a C-182 and get him to start using trim. Coming down final with 2 aboard you'll be trimmed pretty much full back if you don't want to land nose first. Say Go Around and now you have a plane headed for the moon and a panicked pilot pushing full forward with many times the force his previous airplane ever needed.
Heh - and the other C182 gotcha, short field approach with flaps 40, instructor say go around, full power and push forward --- Eeek it wont climb.
Slow realisation - you still have flaps 40 = DUH.
