I do not believe the Standard Cirrus can be looped safely. Don't try it, or the world will spontaneously combust and all life will end.


Flight manual predicts the end of life as we know it maybe!

I like the statement: "The sailplane enters into a spin from a sharp stall applying full rudder. The control stick should be pulled during the spin."

So, are you to remove the control stick if you enter a spin? :-)

Hey Steve,
I think I get (and appreciate) your joke,
but For my own safety, "pulling the stick" is to intentionally induce and maintain a spin, Correct?
