spiral dive. Which was obviously the case here. I don't see that as obvious. "Meanwhile, the glider quickly gathered speed until it exceeded Vne." (Page 2 of the report.) How did it get from spin to spiral dive. By itself. Just as many gliders do. The question is was the glider ever in a spin. I don't know (I'm tempted to say: nobody does) whether the glider was technically ever in a spin or started right into the spiral dive. The question is pretty pointless, pulling back the stick is a bad move in either case. Stefan
