MONTREAL — The Transportation Safety Board of Canada is recommending all Beaver-type planes be equipped with a stall-warning system. The agency made the announcement Thursday as it released its report into a fatal crash involving a Beaver floatplane that struck ground near Tadoussac, Que., in 2015. The TSB said the experienced pilot didn’t realize a stall was imminent when he was making the turn and the aircraft had no stall-warning system. It is recommending Transport Canada require all commercially operated de Havilland DHC-2 float planes, known as Beaver aircraft, be equipped with such a system. The TSB said there are currently 382 DHC-2s registered in Canada, 223 of which are used commercially.
