Default Slingsby T-21


..our T21 would simply mush as speed decreased. Get it high
enough, apply some speed and pull up - cross controls and it would fall
off to side and NOT spin! I was spin-trained in a K13, a Capstan
(T53?)and a Bocian. I enjoyed spins.


This is good, I think. If a club has the luxury, maybe some docile
"unspinnable" trainers for the first few solo flights and then some
others for stall/spin training. If I could only have one trainer, I
would want one that will spin. I spin every student before they solo.

PS. spins ARE fun.
