Dear Pilot.
All of us at the Board hope you will make a speedy and complete recovery. When you are able, we would be much obliged if you could please follow the established procedure, and fill out and file the following Form, found on this page .
Thank you for your kind attention.
Regards.
Instepctor L.O.L
PS. Tracer, no bad taste intended, just having a chuckle at your adventure and reminding ourselves what we would have to go through in such an event if it really happened. I unfortunately had to be on a crash site recovery team once, back in 2001, when a school R-172K flew into a mountain on a night training flight. It is grizzly stuff.

Good Advise:
STAY AWAY FROM WAR ZONES, YOU WILL GET SHOT DOWN!
Bad Advise:
When pointing nose down, don't increase throttle! (Unless you're running from a SAM in that C90) LMAO!

glad you survived the accident, and no doubt will continue to fly for the same company 
1,000 feet per minute decent in a stall, nice. i like the passenger opinion line : terror and grief

Yes, but their terror and grief was at 0% which I find strange..
As far as my decent rate.. I was going for "lawn dart"

Hmm...
First, huge thanks to Wizard for his suggestion regarding the Just Flight DC-3 add on. It was exactly what I was looking for; some good old fashioned instrumentation and rudimentary navaids in something not ridiculously slow but also not too fast, enabling re-familiarization with all those little methods of thinking ahead and planning that FMS/EFIS robs the opportunity of to those who never tried it, and withers them for those who did used to use them, once upon a time, in a far away land, there lived a princess and two bears...
Wait...
Here's some screenies...
Old "Spooky" here as an example from the expansion pack! The cockpit is significantly better than the stock DC-3.
Advice? I'm the wrong person, but...
Maybe get into something like that DC-3 first. Learn how to do some basic instrument flying stuff with precision; standard rate turns, constant speed and constant rate climbs and descents (preferably something under 1,000 ft/min to start with, lol!), then mix them up together, to get a good scan going. Look at some performance information on the aircraft you are flying, especially take off and landing distances, weights and cruise fuel consumption. Don't forget Limitations, either. Do some VFR navigation with a nav log you've compiled, once you've got your performance figures. Progress to using bearing info off a navaid (without DME) to assist with your route tracking, learn some holding entry procedures, how to read a VFR chart, review some airspace regulations, study some instrument enroute charts, and finally, use some SIDs, STARs and approach plates integrated into your plan. (Sound like all the stuff I need to do, LOL!)
Looks like a lot? It is no more effort than it takes to get that DCS A-10C under your belt. By the end of it, you'd probably sail through a real Private Pilot's course with an IR.
Here's the sim I started on. LOL! They've come a long way. You couldn't have done a self tutorial program like that outlined above on this...
