When someone asks what causes a spin, ... the correct answer is that stall and yaw rate must be present to produce a spin .... If you then ask a student to explain the aerodynamics in play as a spin develops, it's THEN you want the auto rotational aerodynamics. Different approach. You, as a military pilot (as I think to have understood), believe in the behavioristic approach. Me, as a scientist (and amateur pilot) follow the cognitive approach. Your approach yields pilots who exactly know what to do in this or that situation, but probably without really understanding the deeper reasons. My approach tries to understand the underlying physics and to deduct the needed pilot action from there. Not nessecairy for a pilot, but it's my style, I think it's interesting and it's the prerequisite if you want to go on your own feet beyond the tought stuff. Now if only that fog around here would go away so I could go and rent that Cap 10 and do some spins... |
