I wonder if a parachute will do much good if you are stalled/spinning;
I'm thinking it would only twist itself up, and never deploy fully.


Spin chutes are a routine part of flight testing of airplanes in case the
airplane is found to have unrecoverable spin characteristics.

I stand corrected.

I was thinking of those large parachutes that can carry the whole plane.
