To reaffirm some of what CJ is saying, you cannot spin if you do not
first stall. Avoid the stall and you avoid the spin. My question would
be, "Why are you opeating so close to stall to begin with?"

Because they probably believed, as does most of this newsgroup,
(certainly not me) that flying at Va in turbulence is safer
than flying at Vno.
