Default Accident in Namibia, SH Ventus 2cxm


As the N4DM is certified, it had to be demonstrated that it will exit a spin after 3 turn at most.
Loosing 1800 m in any certified glider while trying to stop the spin is hilarious.


Maybe not if you in it. But I do see your point, was a spiral mistaken for a spin?

Cheers

This corresponds to something like 12-15 turns. Something has gone wrong very seriously.
