A very ORN-ery auger-in(aircraft markings) but perhaps a silver cloud as the trees, dwellings, excess people and soft sand might have had a worse result if actually getting to the air. A departure stall after an engine failure is a very low percentage maneuver to attempt on a tight beach strip, however good your impromptu mechanics are. The plane should have been trucked out. Those two obeyed Rule #1...twice : They walked away....from both landings! Rule #2 is: don't push yer luck!
