Thin "time", "attitude" and "deployment window". It amazes me that no one
manages to think of these two critical pieces whenever this topic comes up. "Ryan Ferguson" wrote in message ... ArtP wrote: The original manuals did mention standard recovery for spirals and incipient spins (spins which are about to start). Apparently too many people did not understand the word incipient and read this to mean normal spin recovery was possible. The manuals were updated and all references to spin recovery other than CAPS were removed. I won't refute that yet, but I think it's wrong. I think exactly the reverse trend has occurred and reference to normal spin recovery techniques were added... not removed. But I'll check in at work Sunday and snag a couple of POHs ranging over the past couple of years to check. You can't blame Cirrus for being silent - it's damned if they do, damned if they don't. They have a proven, certified method for spin recovery. Someone will fumble the ball and go down using botched 'normal' recovery inputs and then Cirrus will have hell to pay. No, they're not going to come out and say anything other than "The chute is the only method we've demonstrated for spin recovery!" |
