Default Cirrus... is it time for certification review?

Does the training have to be conducted in type for the pilot to maintain
proficiency? I suspect that spin training in a Citabria would do
wonders for a pilot who has just fallen into a spin in a Cirrus.


Different aircraft designs may recover differently.
ie... a long wing aircraft may require use of ailerons. Only the
manufacturers spin testing and recommended recovery technique should be
used.
