How could I forget this............OK: Old Age.
We had returned to 2500 feet AGL and in level flight. He told be to put on the "Hood". This was a little device that prevented me from seeing outside the airplane. (Blinders). I could only see the instruments on the panel.
Then he said....
"I Have The Airplane". He then put the airplane in a steep spiraling dive..engine screaming.....like you see in the freakin movies..Then he said..
YOU Have The Airplane.....I had to take over and recover. I did.
NB
PS: The plane was a Cessna 172.
