Sorry to continue OT, but Kevin, is there a study of Puchacz accidents (comparing to other types) which takes into account what percentage of Puchacz (vs. other types) flights are to perform spin recovery training? If you know the source I would be grateful. To not to clutter the thread, you may e-mail me

Why do you think it's NOT safe to spin a Puchacz?



As of January 2004 Cindy B. had identified 23 fatal spins or over 1/8 of the fleet. A high proportion of these were fatal and several involved 2 CFIGs at the controls. A few searches will yield a couple more since then.
