Yes, spins are permitted except in Landing Flap and appear in the Aircraft Flight Manual for the ASW-27, as do Loops, Lazy Eights, Chandelles and Stall Turns. I practice spins, spin entries and recovery pretty much every season and perform the other maneuvers regularly. I am at a loss to understand the idea presented earlier that spin practice adds as as much risk as benefit - a quick look at the NTSB accident summaries undercuts this idea. I know of no one who has been in a fatal spin training accident, while on the other hand...

Can not answer about the 31, the 29, normal recovery in all flap settings except the 'landing-flap' which is "Strictly Prohibited" flaps need to be reduced immediately. Water ballast has no noticeable influence except for increased speeds. There is a note,Spins can, based on CG and aileron position turn into spiral dive. I had extensive spin training in a 2-32 prior to solo and before my commercial check did 19 various rotation and heading recovering spins in one flight in a L-13 with an instructor who loved spinning. Aerobatics are not authorized in the 29..

Hmmm, wonder why in the 27 but not the 26. What about the 29 and 31, anybody know?



I, too, find the idea that spin training is as dangerous as accidental (untrained!) spins unbelievable. Is there any shred of data to back that supposition?
