I haven't flown any 25 m gliders. I've flown about 35 types, a lot of trainers... The vast majority of them are much easier to stall and spin from shallow bank angles then from medium and steep bank angles. If I am alone in this perception that's news to me.


Seems to me that if you are in danger of spinning from a shallow turn in the landing pattern, you are going much too slow. If you are going that slow, won't a sudden steep turn put you below the stall speed? And won't that cause you to fall rather quickly from the sky?
