Was this C172 certified for spins in the flight manual?
Personally I have never seen one, and it is many years since
I have flown one.
If is was not, tell me the call sign so I never set my backside
inside it.

Well Greg, you chose the wrong day. On Sunday I finished off the Form 2 on
the 13, had her rigged and ready to do the evaluation flight at 14:30 and
did a very enjoyable hour of evaluating the old girl in climbs to 4 kts and
the compulsory fun in between. Rgds - Rolf

Cath,
Mine is in a folder with DCA on it - is that still valid.
Absolutely. Mine is.
Even though the paper is crumbling at the edges and the photo is of some
other person with more hair. :)

Yes, it is expensive, but thats OK.
Of course it's not OK!
Cost is a fundamental reason why one system might be better than another.
If LAMEs are more expensive, we would be dopey to go down that path without
large offsetting benefits.

Having gone through my training in Germany (perhaps a little more recently
than Rolf?) I concur with Rolf. The general syllabus was very similar to
what we have here, including incipient and full spin training. There was A
LOT more theory though.

One of the clubs I fly with is just bringing a new tug on line. Alice's
old radio may be finding a new home there, but MRL needs a transponder

If you have a second hand, but perfectly serviceable transponder sitting
on a shelf, please could you get in touch with Bob Keen (address in

There was discussion some 12 - 18 months ago regarding the possibility for
the Puchacz to occasionally adopt a flatter mode of spinning at rearwards

Peter,
What sort of trim does the Blanik have? Our K-13 has an aerodynamic trim
tab. With it set neutral it rapidly develops into a spiral dive after about
3/4 of a turn, but if you put in full forward trim this makes the trim-tab
go up, giving you more

Don't you love that report? The clown is giving aerobatic displays and relies solely
on rudder to recover from spins...

Perhaps their theoretical treatment of spin entry, spins and recovery, and
limitation of practical experience to slow flight and stalls,
I support spin training, and I will share this personal experience to
support my position.
Several years ago I was having a workout with a Level 3 instructor exploring
the flight envelope of the Puch. While doing a steep turn at about 56kts

I disagree, not all aircraft will spin when flown too slowly at a particular angle of
bank.
Most aircraft give some warning that you are approaching the limits, and, if further
provoked, will stall, with perhaps a wing drop. The Pooch I was flying snapped
straight into a spin. A highly
Actually, a very desirable characteristic for a training aircraft - it
demonstrates to a student exactly what can happen. However, it is highly
undesirable for an early solo glider though for the same reasons. So if you
insist on a fleet of identical 2 seaters, or only have 1, it is a poor
choice.
G'day Robert and others,
Now that Leigh has ventured forward with his thoughts on the matter, I
feel a little easier about posting my thoughts on the Balaklava K-21
history.
Many, perhaps most of us in the Balaklava club were some what

A similar problem exists for LS-6 versus LS 6 and DG-100 versus DG
100 and other numerically identified aircraft types.
