Woohoo!
I just got back from my spin training for my CFI. I went up with a local acrobatic instructor in his Pitts. First time doing any severe unusual attitude stuff and 1st time in a tail dragger. First off, hats off to all those who fly taildraggers. That takes some foot work. Spins weren't as bad as I thought. We did a couple normal stalls to see how quickly the Pitts moves. Next, recovery from incipient spin. Then 1, then 2 turn spins. Learned quite a bit. Even got to do a couple rolls on the way back to the field. Never lost my lunch! I did get a cramp in my right foot from the rudder work, though. J If you've never done any unusual attitude stuff, I would highly recommend it. -- CP-ASEL, instrument |
