JD, in a steep turn in a Beaver there is ample warning of stall and time enough for corrective action.
Yet the last multi fatal in a Beaver (in Canada) mentioned in this story was attributed to this cause. There is a good reason why low level steep turns are the subject of strong warnings to new pilots - a hundred years of fatal accidents, stall warning or not.

Warning on carbon monoxide poisoning
Warning on carbon monoxide poisoning | Flight Safety Australia
CASA has issued an Airworthiness Bulletin today on preventing carbon monoxide poisoning in piston-engine aircraft.
This follows indications that the pilot of a float plane that crashed near Sydney in late 2017 may have been affected by carbon monoxide poisoning.
Does it take 2 years for a toxicology report to be done and presented ?
Reading the report, toxicology tests were only requested after all the other non-productive leads had been followed up.
These investigations are done very carefully and methodically, with procedures learned over the last century or so.
