One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm an adventure type of person, unlike my outward look, actually I was chasing thrill sometime it was consider as dangerous by others, there was the old memory as the date with my deceased wife 20years ago or so, I took her for ultralight ride (I was a certified pilot back in the US, but in Taiwan, all you got is sporting planes which weren't very reliable), and soon after we roll, around 200ft, which alarmingly low in attitude, the little Rotax engine quit on me, and I got the chill and soon dive for emergency which I guessed will ccertainly cause some injury, how am I going to tell her parents, echoing deep under my heart, then I prayed to God if I ever get out of this, I will marry to this woman,then I try to restart the engine by hand pull the cranking rope, and it started! after we landed, the field guy after heard the whole story, told me it's impossible to restart the engine since that airplane had a reverse installation.
