skim reading all that has been said i just want to add this:
No one wants to get in a spin? (correct??)
A spin is likely to occur when we have a high workload and with little attention spread across the board?
There will be little height most of the time, slow speeds?
So why practice or focus on the spin its self, why not focus of not ‘loosing’ our attention, recovery actions almost before you have started to spin and stopping the spin in its tracks?
Prevention is better than cure surely (or hospital!)
I have done a bit of hands on spin training, but would it make me better at responding when im in a circuit somewhere? I dont know, i would like to think so, but we live in a real world and i imagine if i got into the situation it would be for the same reasons for me as anyone else.
The speed of my response to everything not just a spin and not putting my self in that position in the first place is my goal for me that is better than saying I can recover in 200ft and im at 500ft or saying last year, last month or yesterday i showed i recovered from the spin with an instructor or examiner, because the time i need it will be totally different to the conditions in the test.
Experience a spin, possibly good to show what its all about but prevention, skill training and response and pridiction training is my prefered method so i never have to encounter a spin that i didnt take off with the plan to put myself in it!
