Perhaps the plane kept going round in circles

Since he's "climbing, climbing", maybe he's climbing in a curve, and staying the same distance away all the time....

Quote (Man In Rain @ Feb. 26 2001, 18:38)

stall - A sudden lost of lift caused by a disruption of the normal flow of air over the upper surface of the wing. This occurs when the wing's angle of attack (angle between the wing and the oncoming air) reaches a critical value (critical angle of attack). Stall speed is the speed at which a plane enters in a stall under certain conditions (which is determined by pitch, thrust, bank, weight, flaps etc.)

Couldn't it mean the engine(s) is(are) stalling, i.e. coming to a stop?
