Since several experienced pilots have said that they have had trouble determining the direction of the spin, I accept that it happens - and that it can happen to me. I do not understand why. Most glider spins happen when turning and, in the hunderds of intentional spins that I've done (I have only one unintentional spin), the glider spins in the direction of the turn. What am I missing? I do like the yaw string idea. Tony V. |
