  • Chapter 5: Maintaining Aircraft Control: Upset Prevention and Recovery Training › Stalls › Spin Awareness

    execute spin recovery procedures. Spin Procedures The first rule for spin demonstration is to ensure that the airplane is approved for spins. Please note that this discussion addresses generic spin procedures; it does not cover special spin procedures or techniques ... type certification data to determine if the airplane is approved for spins ⦁ Weight and balance limitations ⦁ Recommended entry and recovery procedures ⦁ The current 14 CFR part 91 parachute requirements…

    same as it is in all airplanes: reduce the angle of attack (AOA). For reference, the stall recovery procedure described in Chapter 5 is included in Figure 13-9. Following a reduction in the AOA and the stall warning being ... flight and possible spin entry. Similarly, simulated engine failures should not be performed during stall entry and recovery. Figure 13-9. Stall recovery procedure…

  • Chapter 13: Transition to Multiengine Airplanes › Spin Awareness and Stalls › Spin Awareness

    Spin Awareness and Stalls No multiengine airplane is approved for spins, and their spin recovery characteristics are generally very poor. It is therefore prudent to practice spin avoidance and maintain a high awareness of situations that can result ... stalled condition needs to exist. At the stall, the presence or introduction of a yawing moment can initiate spin entry. In a multiengine airplane, the yawing moment may be generated by rudder input or asymmetrical thrust. It follows, then, that…

    buffet, roll off) near and at full stall and (b) to reinforce the proper application of the stall recovery procedures. Given the associated risk of asymmetric thrust at high angles of attack and low rudder effectiveness due to low airspeeds ... more effective and allows for roll to be better controlled. Thrust should only be used as needed in the recovery. Accelerated Approach to Stall Accelerated approach to stall should be performed with a bank of approximately…

  • Chapter 5: Maintaining Aircraft Control: Upset Prevention and Recovery Training › Stalls › Incipient Phase

    spin. The entry procedure for demonstrating a spin is similar to a power-off stall. During the entry, the pilot should slowly reduce power to idle, while simultaneously raising the nose to a pitch attitude that ensures a stall ... limit of travel. Unless AFM/POH specifies otherwise, ailerons are maintained in the neutral position during the spin procedure. Incipient Phase The incipient phase occurs from the time the airplane stalls and starts rotating until the spin has fully developed. This…
