Hey, Colonel have you ever tried landing a Twin Otter on a short ice strip and roll the throttle handles into reverse just as the thing is about to touch the ice and just prior to the stall?

For sure you want the thing to be going down the strip in a straight line before the props turn everything white in the snow storm the props make.

I need to share these exciting stories before senility sets in completely...actually the deeper into senility I go the easier it is to relate to a lot of the aviation community.
