I have a limited exposure to spins (I've demonstrated spins or received spin instruction in 5 different airplanes on six different occasions). I have a commercial certificate (although you wouldn't think so from my demonstration of a chandelle). Maybe I did have to demonstrate a power on stall while in a climbing 20 degree bank, once. As I recall, we survived it. I return to the original question: if the ball is in the middle will it spin? Becuase I believe snowmobile suits are for snowmobiling and not for flying I won't have a chance to explore it with an aerobatic instructor and an appropriate (but drafty) airplane for a few months -- so I thought I would put the question in a bottle and throw it in the ocean.

And courting disaster doing a chandelle? If you're going to do a commercial ticket you should be familair with spins intimately. An incipient spin shouldn't even make you break a sweat. The answer to the ball question is no. It won't spin. A ball centered airplane in a climbing turn is compensated by rudder and is considered coordinated (in the classic sense). If you introduce a climbing turn stall with the ball centered, you might get a temporary wing drop at the break but unless you introduce a yaw rate as the stall breaks; no yaw rate...no spin! -- Dudley Henriques |
