![]() "Steve.T" wrote in message oups.com... I have a few suggestions. These are to be done in parallel: 1) Before you go and do a spin in your airplane, make sure that you have obtained the latest updates to the POH (or equivalent) for your airplane (by serial number). Review all STCs that have been installed to see what they have done relative to spins in your aircraft. Next, read, re-read, and read again what it says to do should you get into a spin. Now make sure that all the placards are in place in your aircraft concerning spins. Already Done. 2) Find a CFI that is familiar with your a/c type that knows how to do a spin and will teach you recovery. Go there and learn to do it right. Hard to find someone local that wants to teach spin recovery, If I could find someone local that wont put me over gross even with 6 gallons of fuel I would. Its just a thought in my mind right now of doing it alone. I may never do it but as the names of the instructors that refuse in my little black book get longer and longer the more I think about just going out and giving it a try as I have pushed almost every limit of my little 150 already except spins. |
