This would be a new one on me. I spin my Cherokee regularly and have never run across this problem. Are you saying that your airspeed is building up during the spin? If that's the case, I'd venture to guess that you are in a spiral dive rather than a spin. In most of the planes I've spun, airspeed does not increase with the duration of the spinning. I end up with about the same speed at the end of one turn or four turns. Maybe I'm misinterpreting "let it go too long". John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) |
