Spinning or the after effects of stalling.

This/these threads seem to have developed into several
all going on about the same subject, spinning and all
neglecting the start to spinning, that is;

Stalled flight and its recognition!

Surely the whole object is in educating our students
into

1. Knowing the symptoms of the stall.
2. Recognising those symptons in flight.
3. The consequences of failing to recognising them.
4. The action required to prevent/overcome stalled
flight.
5. The action(s) required if all this has failed, ie
spin recovery.

6. Finally reinforcing all these in relation to the
aircraft you are flying and the prevailing conditions
in which you are flying it.

History shows us that every glider will spin given
the correct (or maybe the wrong) control, C Of G inputs.
It just happens that some are more predictable than
others, but the consequences of getting it wrong are
the same for all.

Gliders do not kill people, people kill people, education
may just help to stop it.
