Got stuck on top of rapidly deteriorating weather in ND one winter day while doing instrument training. Ended up shooting an approach in a single engine piper through the ice. Landed with about 1/2 - 3/4 inch of ice on EVERYTHING.

Had a student kick the rudder in a stall and then freeze up with his foot on the floor while we spun around. Had to hit him across the chest to "unfreeze" him.

Airline: Flap failure in the CRJ at flaps zero and close to max landing weight. Resulted in a very fast touchdown (178 knots), and an 11000' rollout.

Cargo fire indication in the CRJ right after takeoff. Came back around and landed in record time (4 minutes takeoff to touchdown).

Passenger had a heart attack once on descent. Flew 330 knots to a 7 mile final. Crossed the marker at 260 knots and still was stabilized by 500' AGL. (Passenger survived)

Had two out of the three glass cockpit screens fail in flight my very first trip in the Citation.

Had a CRJ window pane crack (inner pane). Sounded like somebody hit it with a baseball bat.

Bunch of other little minor malfunctions and stuff, but nothing really exciting.
Great Job working through all those EP's. What did you do to get cursed?
