The facts in the case are pretty simple: She got too slow in a turn and entered a stall/spin. That's pretty obvious. But let's take the money out of it. She was in a high performance airplane that was above her skill level. 'Most' new pilots can't afford to fly high performance airplanes for initial training and they tend to work their way up building seat time and gaining exp. along the way before making the jump. I do get the fact that every person is different and has different skill sets, etc. but I remember the first time I flew a 182. That thing was a monster. There would have been no way I could have flown that thing without having a few hundred hours of 152/172 time first, but I also understand it's a new generation of technology and pilots starting out today have many different options.

And yes, I have seen MANY high performance cars crash at the track because their drivers had less skill than their cars. Don't see near as many Miata's going off track.

But you're right, it is what it is at this point and prayers sent to all involved..
