I just went on a short x-country with 3 friends to have dinner. It was
night as we returned in my Cessna 170. One was asleep in the back. I told the others I could put us in a spin and us 3 would could scream like we were going to die as the sleeper woke up in the middle of a spin. We voted not to. Danny Dot www.mobbinggonemad.org |

It isn't approved for spins with all the seat full.
Why not just land and have your friends lift the tail up, after the prop has stopped and balance it on the nose, the scream. "Danny Dot" wrote in message news ![]() dinner.

A 170? With 2 people in the back seat?
Read the POH. You wouldn't have been able to get out of the spin with the CG that far aft. I hope you're a troll. If you even considered this for a moment, you shouldn't be flying. What's with people's need to always get their panties in a bunch about little things like this all the time around here? HE SAID IT WAS A JOKE. THEY NEVER DID IT. Jesus Christ people, go outside sometime... |

I agree.....it seems that when people are behind a keyboard and monitor they seem all too ready to jump down everyone's throats about little stuff. Now if the OP had written that he had actually performed this maneuver then maybe some criticism of his actions would be warranted. A good well placed joke always reminds me of how funny life can be. But taken too far and it is no longer funny! |

Danny Dot www.mobbinggonemad.org One night driving to Florida my buddy was a sleep in the passenger seat and I think we were the only vehicle in the area, I slammed on the brakes (we both had belts on) and screamed! I laughed my ass off, he didn't think it was near as funny, but I'm a huge dick. ----------------------------------------- DW |

I turned the DG 180 degrees of where we were headed. I then bumped him, and thanked him for flying while I slept and asked how come we were headed the wrong way. The look on his face was worth it's weight in gold! G OK, THAT was funny! It was creative, and no screaming. |

He locked up the brakes on the highway and spun the car 360 degrees. I woke up in the middle. |

I had a passenger sleeping while I was following one of those large tow trucks that was towing a semi-tractor by its tail. She woke up and screamed at first until she realized we weren't on a collision course with the semi. Sure startled me... |

Hauling skydivers. I took an extra yoke along stuffed next to my seat.
After we'd been climbing awhile I told the guy next to me to be quiet as I got the extra yoke out of hiding. I let out the expected "Oh S*&^" as I wiggled the rudder a little and handed the yoke to the folks in back as if mine had come off. |
