4.12.3 SPIN
To enter a spin proceed as follows:
- Reduce speed, power idle
- When the plane stalls:
- Kick rudder to desired spin direction
- Hold ailerons neutral
- Stick back (positive spinning), stick forward (negative spinning)
The plane will immediately enter a stable spin.
- Ailerons against spin direction will make the spin flatter.
- Ailerons into spin direction will lead to a spiral dive.
Above apply for positive and negative spinning.
To stop the spin:
- Apply opposite rudder
- Make sure, power idle
- Hold ailerons neutral
- Stick to neutral position
The plane will recover within 1/2 turn.
Recovery can still be improved by feeding in in-spin ailerons.
N O T E
If ever disorientation should occur during spins (normal or inverted) one method
always works to stop the spin:
- Power idle
- Kick rudder to the heavier side
(this will always be against spin direction)
- Take hands off the stick
The spin will end after 1/2 turn. The plane will be in a steep dive in a side-slip.
Recovery to normal flight can be performed easily.
N O T E
After six turns of spinning the altitude loss including recovery is 3200 ft.
