BTW, you haven't lived until you've done accelerated stalls that transition
into accelerated spins! Hoo-har!!

About 1978, in a C-150 @ ~2500 agl under a cloud bank, student practicing steep turns, and I notice he is trying to hold
the nose up using top rudder, with the ball off to the left. I also notice the speed decaying, but I figure I'll let him
get a little deeper in to it. The buzzer chipped and over we go into a right snap roll and down into a spin. Piece of
cake, except this guy is bigger than I am and he froze up on the controls, yoke back and spinning. I finally busted it
loose from him and effected a recovery, and when I checked the altimeter we were at about 800'. I decided that I would
not let students get that far out of shape anymore...
