Larry,

But if the aircraft is below 1,000', the CAPS system is probably not
an option.


IF you are in a fully developed spin (1 full turn, as certification
requires and the handbook says), traditional spin recovery isn't an
option either at 1000 feet. There is a limit to altitude loss during
recovery to meet certification. The chute obviously qualifies.

I presume that we are still just talking about fast and slick aircraft;
because the Cessna 150M and Cessna 152 can both be spun a full turn,
recovered and flown away losing half that altitude. However, the point is
essentially moot, since no pilot who was that proficient in the recovery
would allow it to happen.
