Why do you practice spins and why are people so worried when doing them?
You practice spins to remove the anxiety, stress, and be able to recover safely. People are so
worried about doing them because of the unknown and the unfamiliarity of the maneuver.
What are the requirements to induce a spin?
Stall with yaw (Uncoordinated)
What is a Spin?
The lower wing is more stalled than the raised wing, which creates an autorotation, rolling,
yawing, and pitching around the vertical axis.
During a spin which wing is stalled?
, Both wings are stalled but the lower wing has an increasing AOA and is more stalled. The
difference in lift causes the rolling action.
What is the load factor in a spin?
Just slightly above 1G
What are the four phases of a Spin?
Entry, Incipient, Developed, and Recovery Phase.
What happens in the Entry Phase?
Elements to start the spin are provided (Stall / Yaw).
What happens in the Incipient Phase?
Start of the Stall/Rotation to the time the spin is fully developed. 2-4 turns typically. Airspeed
stabilizes at a low and constant airspeed. Turn Indicator indicates the direction of the spin.
What happens in the Developed Phase?
Rotation, Airspeed, and Vertical Speed are stabilized in a nearly vertical flightpath. Spin is in
Equilibrium.
What happens in the Recovery Phase?
