In Canada spins are a requirement, you do them for PPL training, and they are a flight test item for CPL. I think it's great training. (Fun too)

+caraboose We're all just drops in the bucket. I disagree too, I'm glad that I was taught in my PPL, I'm sure it will pay off some day.

PARE is pronounced the same as "pair" not "par." Additionally, the elevator action is a bit more nuanced than described. It is: Power - Off; Ailerons - Neutral; Rudder - Full Opposite (and held until spinning stops); Elevator - Neutral, where "neutral" is a direction, not an exact location. This covers upright and inverted spin cases. In the overwhelming majority of cases, however, the spins are upright. So "neutral" will be forward movement of the stick/yoke. How far? However far it takes to finish off the rotation. In the best case scenario, it may only require relaxing some back pressure; in the worst case, it could require forceful and full forward elevator. And the amount could vary even in the same airplane under different spin conditions. The elevator action in PARE is performed immediately after the Rudder action (i.e., full opposite and held) has been completed. When the spin is over, Rudder - Neutral; Elevator - Easy pull to straight and level (no more than you might apply for a steep turn). Also, while intentional spins are NEVER approved when in the Normal category, spins are not always approved in the Utility category! In the Utility category, manufactures have the option to conduct spin testing as if Normal category, or as if Acrobatic category. Some airplanes are Spins Prohibited in the Utility category, while others are Spins Approved. Follow manufacturer info and placards in this regard.

Just noodling around on KZread and found this. I'm glad Rich chimed in right away. I really worry about video of this caliber; i.e. that fails to communicate complete and authentic information about important flying topics. I'm sure what I am saying here has probably been addressed by other respondents over these last three years, but here are a few things that pop into my cranium. First, the association of spin entry with a turning stall is not really good information for someone who is learning about spins from this video. We can do coordinated turning stalls all day long without spinning, and spin easily from straight ahead stalls as well as in other situations. Second, neither of these depicted events looked like spins to me. Instead they looked like the things most of us flight instructors did to earn our spin endorsement. That is to say, these appear to be incipient spins with a recovery from a spiral dive. The fact that the narrator is reflecting on G-forces is further evidence that the recovery was from a high speed condition, which by definition, is not a spin. It was only when I began to train flight instructors that I really understood why the late (and great) pilot examiner Dutch Zwiefel used to stop me in the hall and growl; "What's your airspeed in a spin?". He asked this question because he knew that most of us had never actually participated in a developed spin, where airspeed would be, by definition, somewhere between stall speed and zero. So, when I went up with my CFI students over Canyon Lake, we entered the spin, then held the pro-spin inputs. Wow, what a revelation that was!. The old C-152 sloshed around - woosh, woosh, woosh: What's our airspeed, Victor?" Indeed the airspeed indicator was also sloshing around, oscillating somewhere slightly below stall speed. Then, after a few turns, when we applied the recovery inputs, They all made sense. Power was already at idle, then ailerons neutral and opposite rudder. Rotation stopped, elevator forward enough to break the stall, then recover with nose up and added power. And airspeed never strayed out of the green ark. In fact, my recollection is that airspeed was around 65KIAS; no drama, no G-forces, no stress. A low energy recovery from a low energy manuever. Years later when I conducted private pilot practical tests, I noticed a regular anomaly when asking about spin recovery. I would say that more than half of the applicants in a certain region failed to tell me about forward movement of the elevator. One day I asked the applicant to reconcile what he was telling me with what the POH said about spin recovery. He said; "Oh, yeah but you won't really need any forward elevator because you are already pointed straight down." I had one guy say; "No, you have to pull back because you're going to fast!" Well, they are right when recovering from the spiral dive (not a spin) that occurs naturally after an incipient spin entry with no pro-spin control inputs held. I am sure the reason that so many private pilot applicants omitted the {Forward Elevator Sufficient to Break the Stall} control input, was because their instructors had never actually recovered from a spin. They had done what I did during my CFI training; a spin entry and recovery from a high energy spiral dive (which is not a spin). So we really need to take care to make sure that we have authentic and complete knowledge of a subject prior to teaching others. Aviation education is generational, and the sins of the father are handed down to the offspring. Meaning, if our flight instructor does not know the complete truth about a topic or maneuver, then we will learn wrong stuff. And when we become flight instructors, we will probably teach that wrong stuff to our students as well. The process is even more dramatic with internet based training systems. So I urge anyone who is posting instructional video to make sure that their content is complete, correct, and does not inadvertently mis-educate those who absorb its content. We must hold ourselves to a higher standard, otherwise we actually lower the standard of knowledge in the aviation community. And no offense meant to M-Zero A. I know these folks are working hard to publish good products for consumption by budding aviators.

Chas987107 Damn! Thanks for taking the time to write this :) It makes sense after you get level and yaw back to 0... then you’re left with the relative wind hitting the bottom of the wing and belly. From the wings perspective it would be in a very high angle of attack and stalled. So you need pitch the nose down to get the wing creating lift again and the air speed up above stall before you calmly pull her back to level flight. I hope I’m tracking what you are saying:)

Spin training was required back when I got my Private Pliot's License in 1974. Got my ATP in a Lear Jet model 25. Lear jets have great performance on one engine so the single engine approach to a missed approach was easy. Rate of climb was a little under 2,000 feet per minute on a single engine.

I've had my license just over 30 years and I enjoy watching your videos because I learn or relearn things I may have forgot. Thanks

I agree with many of the comments about the spin, or lack thereof. Those were not spins, but a pro spin input and perhaps a bit of an incipient spin, but most certainly not a developed spin. Recovery using the PARE is appropriate for developed spins, using appropriate unusual attitude recovery procedures is otherwise recommended . Using "push, power, rudder, roll, climb" is the preferred unusual attitude recovery.

You can't HELP but absolutely ENJOY Jason's vids and learn so much. They're concise and FUN to watch.

I flew my first spin 12 hours into my PPL training. 50+ spins later and it has become just another maneuver I fly. I did my PPL old school, including a tail wheel endorsement and aerobatics.

MzeroA's video's are a very valuable source for students. Thanks for posting them.

I'm still a student pilot and have solo'd and entering the latter part of my training. My CFI is a spin instructor as well. It didn't take much to convince him to incorporate spins and nasty stalls in my training! The above is not a spin per what I've learned. its an incipient spin. NOW in Jason's defense you would want to correct a real life unintentional spin in that stage before it fully developed! The spins I'm learning we have at least 1 full rotation and often 3 rotations before breaking the spin. This is highly valuable! the more you spin the faster it gets and more disorienting it becomes. I strongly recommend you experience that so you know how your body will react! AS A PPL STUDENT with only 25hrs I have told my instructor that I want to do LOTS and LOTS of stalls and spins, not because I have a death wish or am seeking thrills! Because I have a family and children! I want to not just know what to do I want to be programmed to react in the dangerous situations saving precious seconds and perhaps altitude! Fellow students, it is absolutely worth (and I believe should be mandatory) becoming proficient in these! I know many of you will simply just remain in coordinated flight (which I agree with) but stuff happens and when it does I want to be able to react!!!

As stated below, spins are mandatory training for the PPL checkride in Canada. I still remember the day when my instructor told me we were going up to practice spins. I probably had 20 hours. When I figured he was not joking I said: Are you crazy? I still remember my first spin. A valuable technique I would recommend learning. --> Make sure your bird W&B is in the "utility category"; and do it with a CFI.

@Colin Skinner Agreed - I started flying while in high school, '79, FBO/instructor was an AF pilot. He introduced me to spins at about 10 or 12 hours of flight time, and was insistent on 2+ turn proficiency. I practiced them nearly every time I went up, solo or dual. Didn't take very long and it wasn't any different from correcting a skidding car in the winter. One of my best friends is a retired airline captain, check pilot with 28K hours in his career, have spent many hours listening to him tell about ATPs who struggle with basic maneuvers, emergency and otherwise. Enough to make me believe that drifting away the basics isn't necessarily a good thing.

Clear and informative as always. Thank you Jason!

This is awesome man, I am taking flying lessons and I can't wait until we learn this. I hope I have the nerves!!!!

Great video. I remember learning to stall and spin in a Cessna 150 many years ago. My instructor didn't shout as much as you do!!

Thanks for the video, you made it look SO easy. I went up for the first time in over a year today (I finished my training and chickened out when it came time for the test). I asked the old man (I call him that cause he runs the school and has been an instructor for like 45 or 50 years) about stalls on the briefing. I said that no one had ever mentioned it, or demonstrated it, or anything. Well about 35 mins in, he says, "We're not gonna do a spin, but I'm going to start one and you need to fix it before it becomes a spin." We're already in slow flight at stall speed, and as SOON as I said "OK", he stood on the rudder and we nosed over. It scared me so bad, I recovered before I had time to think (Thanks FSx). The plane didn't get to spin and the old man was happy.

Kids, these are not spins but incipient spins or simply spin entries.

Ian Marks You are correct, but that is the point of spin recovery training at a beginner level - to stop an incipient spin from becoming a full spin and losing massive altitude

With me it was spin training both left hand and right BEFORE being allowed solo. It was great fun. Later once solo in the GF we used to spin away an hour or two, easy; just for the hell of it. Any spin less than three full turns was sissy. We spun both Cessna and Piper too to get the feeling of spinning overwing and underwing, two seater and four seater. With load and without.

Yes in Canada it is in the training for my REC License. Most of all I loved it!

They aren't fully developed spins, but that is not the point. You can see the spin rotation by looking at the horizon. This is about spin recovery, not flight testing the envelope for the aircraft, which would be pretty "iffy" for fully developed spins with no quick-release drag chute and a parachute in this type. Many certificated aircraft cannot be recovered once in a fully developed spin. Read Rich Stowell's book on Spin Awareness. The idea is to recognize and get out of the spin a quickly as possible. Good opening about getting the aircraft into utility category weight and balance before trying this. No one in the back seat, no baggage, no full fuel.

Your check pilot examiner is SO VERY RIGHT. If you want to be a safe pilot in any aircraft, you need to know the correct procedure for spin recovery. There are so many situations where one can get into trouble, and wind up in a spin. You must know the Principals of Flight formula ie., CL HALFE ROW V SQUARED S. and how to understand it and make it work. retired CPL with greay hair and years of working knowledge with spinning.

Well that looks AMAZINGLY fun!

In Europe spin recovery is also part of PPL training, I did mine in a C152 aerobat I will never forget it, it was an awesome experience.

Great video Jason, thanks! Request for your next spin video: also play out the spin entry entirely on each camera in sequence instead of cutting between cameras so that we can experience the entirety from multiple angles. You have fantastic angles with all of those cameras!

As a sailplane pilot I have never checked out in a two place sailplane without demoing a spin recovery. The Schweitzer 2-32 was the only one that made me uncomfortable but I think I impressed the guy giving my check ride by recovering in about a third of a turn. My instructor in power planes (prior to becoming a sailplane pilot) was an old timer who taught during the Civilian Pilot Training Program during WWII and he did not teach landings until after showing you a spin or two. Not kidding. As an instructor he didn't talk much but somehow you got the point of what he was showing you.

I remember back in my 1st week of private pilot training with my CFI Mike. I was learning power on stalls and I almost went into a spin by not immediately pushing left rudder when the stall broke. Mike and I had previously talked about spins, but as you said, it was not required in my training at that point. He was a really cool young CFI and showed me a few lessons later because I was curious. We went over, power idle, neutral ailerons, full opposite rudder(than turn coordinator is showing), pitch down - to break the spin then recover. It’s really easy, and even on my 1st few tries, I could do it without losing over 500 feet altitude. However, I could very easily see if a spin happened while you were not expecting and specifically set up for recovery; it would be very jarring and scary. You probably would lose 1000 feet before even realizing what was going on. Then, without being specifically prepared, you could lose several thousand more before remembering what was going on, how to recover, then finally recovering.

Also, thanks for the video. I appreciate your knowledge.

I really enjoy watching all your lessons. Thank you so much

My instructor once told me: the spin is impressive and but not very dangerous, but the spiral are unimpressive, but very dangerous. During my training, we practiced spin and we were supposed to perform a 2 turns' spin.

My vote is to do spin training. I did that with my CFI, and on flight simulator so it became a known process. Even when I got my Instrument training, we did it under the hood. Gives you a level of confidence to handle those situations.

Wow! really surprises me that spin training is not required until CFI in America, especially when one of the biggest killers in GA is stalling on the base to final turn, which a lot of the time develops into an unrecoverable spin. I'm a PPL student in the U.K with only 15hours and we have spent at least 4--5 hours so far practicing spin recovery, power on stall to spins etc, and more importantly how to recognise an impending stall/spin. Glad to see in the comments that a lot of CFI's in America do train their students on spin recovery even though it is not required. Safe flying everyone.

very useful video training!

During my lessons in a 152 my CFI had me stall and spin almost every lesson. It became so routine that recovery was automatic, even boring. I felt relaxed and confident in my abilities to recover if needed. I also did a lot of pre-stall training to avoid getting into a spin in the first place. I was surprised to learn that stall and spin practice is rare these days, we did it every lesson. We also did engine failure drills every lesson.

Thats great training - pilots should learn spins over and over until they are second nature.

Most of us know the spin recovery procedure but the first and most important thing is CLOSE the throttle ...power off, a few have brought the farm through trying to recover with power on ....as we are not home on the couch but bricking it in an unusual attitude with the houses getting bigger , people panic under pressure .

+Hot n Salty I accidentally got into a spin, and there is a panic because it's all very confusing and initially it hurts. Was glad my instructor did many spins with me. I think it's extremely important to experience them and learn them with a CFI.

As mentioned in other comments, the recovery is the thing. However, a properly rigged C-172 has a restricted deflection of the elevator that precludes a full stall. This is a certification compliance. Which leads to a problem with multi-turn spins. The aircraft will be accelerating and be in a high speed spiral versus an actual stable spin. This is a far more perilous condition as it appears to be a spin to the uninitiated and they will find themselves at a much higher speed exiting the maneuver than they planned. A major university used to have two,”Spin Ships,” in their fleet. This restricted the abuse of the classic gyros to just the two aircraft and, unbeknownst to most, maintenance tweaked the up stops of the elevator to give a slightly better stall which led to fewer over speeds of the airframes. Fully aerobatic aircraft rarely have restricted control movement and hence are IMO, better spin trainers. Aerobatics are great things to learn. They remove the term,”Unusual attitude,” from the pilot’s experience.

Good video, thanks for posting. The only request I would make is to add a recovery with a cockpit view so we can see what you're doing as you're doing it. The outside view looks awesome, but I feel like I could learn better by actually seeing you do the maneuver.

Thanks, I'm SOAKING IT UP Thanks Again for the information jjm in Montgomery Alabama Sent

This video is good to prevent trauma!

Shortly after starting stalls probably 5th or 6th hour, my instructor who was current on spins ensured he did spins with me. It was a blast. I was doing Part 141 and I think it was in the syllabus to do at that time anyway. It saved my life later on a solos practicing high altitude maneuvers, and could at anytime should I ever get in to a spin for whatever reason. They're fun to practice, they suck to accidentally get into, so it's best to practice first and know how to recover. I think all student pilots should go through spin recovery procedures at least with their instructor, maybe not for exam purposes. Spins can suck and not all aircraft are certified for spins.

As a past flight instructor, I am amazed that some countries do not make full spin training mandatory. The way I look at it, you should never feel uncomfortable in an aircraft no matter what attitude you are in. Look, there are two things you need in aviation 1) distance between you and the ground and 2) an aircraft that does not break apart. All PPL training should include stalls, incipient spins, full spins, all power off and then progress to power on. Of course this based on the aircraft's approvals.

Great video Jason. I am not certain if it is mentioned below, but we are required to demonstrate Spin recovery here in Canada before we can be cleared to solo. It is not tested on the Private check ride, but it is on the Commercial check ride. I love them, and it is a great skill to learn. Cheers.

As I was told, "if you never let a stall develop, you will not enter the spin." We did however, do spiral dive recovery which is completely different. I also visited the USA and was surprised to be turned down by several CFIs when I told them I would like to go up for spin recovery. Now, from Jason's video, I can understand why they were reticent to try.

Spin training may one day save your life. Do it. Every bad situation you encounter always is solved by "remember your training"

In a climbing turn you're actually constantly rolling to the OUTSIDE of the turn to maintain a certain attitude to the horizon. So the outside wing has a higher angle of attack - it should stall first. Result: Over-the-top spin Opposite is true of a descending turn. You must constantly bank INTO the turn to follow the spiral -> low wing has higher angle of attack -> low wing stalls first.

I love doing spins. Yes I checked to see if he was spin qualified.

One of the first things my flight school taught was spins - in a Piper Tomahawk, which will not pull out of a spin unless it is all done in the correct order - at the time I thought it was standard flight training.

I think VR is a great way to learn spins, no risk of losing a wing, well a real wing anyway. You don't get the G forces but you will learn the visual ques and the muscle memory to react instantly. I would suggest the free "DCS World" flying the training P-51. It is very easy to spin and can be hard to recover. If you don't have a VR headset then you could use freetrack, facetracknoir, or trackir for head tracking, although for a lesser effect.

Awesome thanks

Thanks for your video really enjoyed it it is hard to believe that spins I'm not a requirement before solo, I'm learning to fly gliders and I had to show I could do spins and recovery before they let me solo, I have flown a powered plane twice both times were when I was a teenager I can't afford to learn power so I have joined my local gliding club it's great I'm in Australia where are you I would like to check if it is the same requirements here I think spins need to be part of training, other wise people will die in crashes.

Did that many years ago in a 172, it did not recover immediately. The right spin entry was more abrupt than usual. It took 1.5 full revolutions, full sustained opposite rudder and full forward elevator, before it recovered, C of G was within limits. Turns out that three of the engine mounts after an engine overhaul were installed backwards, only the upper left mount was correctly installed. The student was a bit concerned, I was quite upset. A lot of good was accomplished from the investigation of the incident. So, if your aircraft has just had an engine replaced, check the engine mounts??? Remember shit happens, be safe, have fun! This was the only time in over 50 years of flying professionally, I experienced a preventable technical failure, that could have had a serious outcome.

The Russian commercial airliner letting his kid take the controls and getting into a spin brought me here. Plane go boom.

Do you feel any G's when you are spinning? Or do you only feel the G during the pull up? I'm really nervous about this as I don't like rollercoasters and I may have to do this in a few weeks.

In Australia it’s a requirement to recover from spins for the most basic of licence the recreational licence

You have to know how to enter and recover a spin for CPL here in Aus. It's not on their check sheet but no approved testing officer will sign you off until you show you can.

Although required for American CFI training, it should be required for at least Comm certs. Canadians get to rock it during primary, and we should too. I know, if we don't stall we can't spin and there are many opinions stacked against demonstrating the maneuver. Either way, it should be included in primary training. #Aviation #Spins

+Windtee I absolutely agree -- how else can you learn what to do if you get into a spin unintentionally?

Spinning is pretty safe as long as you have altitude. You should not be scared of spins. Learning to recovery is one of the most important things you can be good at, not getting in one in the first place is the most important.

Do I see an Island Airlines (out of ACK and HYA) sticker on behind you? Great to see some ZBW based carriers represented!

Wish I had finished my training years back

In Australia to obtain a PPL it is a requirement the all pilots are proficient at spin/stall recovery (assuming an appropriate aircraft available). The most likely time a pilot is likely to enter an incipient spin accidentally is when going solo for the first time or early in their career, particularly when flying low and slow, as in the circuit pattern. Proper spin/stall identification and recovery is essential for survival. After being deemed proficient we are encouraged to practice them during subsequent solo flights. Failing spin/stall recoveries will prevent a pilot being deemed proficient for their licence test. Spins and stalls are not difficult, but they are the cause of many GA and LSA fatalities due to incorrect identification and recovery techniques. I would suggest that if you flying school is NOT teaching spin/stall recoveries then they are failing their duty of care to their students. It is essential these techniques are taught if we want to improve the GA and LSA flight safety records.

Mr. Schappert, have you flown Pipers much? I am currently flying a Piper Warrior, and the stall behaviors (as you may know) are quite different than those of a 172, for example. I was just curious, if you had flown Pipers much, whether the spin process, behavior, and recovery is similar in a Piper Warrior to that of a 172! Thanks so much!

Hello Jason, love you're web site and training video's. I have a question concerning spin training in 172's; I am being told that they are not spinnable; I disagree you pull it off quite successfully; i've seen other cfi's do it too here on KZread. Utility cats, tested to 3 full revolutions before recovery and 3.8 G's; that's what my commercial training taught me. I can't spin in 150's or 152's due to weight. You're thoughts on this sir. Harold..

I'm a little freaked out as I have to do this soon. During the pitch-over and the subsequent spinning/falling phase, do you feel like a you are on a roller coaster? This is the part I'm worried about the most.

In Canada, we have to do practice the recovery dual with our instructor at the PPL level, and we need to demonstrate it at the CPL level.

do you do a full spin or incipient spin in CPL flight test?

Scary fact is most pilots who have spun in during an approach will tell you they didn't realize they were stalled until it was too late. Unfortunately, most stalls which has resulted in a spin happen close to the ground not at seven thousand feet. That being said it is of greater importance to have the knowledge of not unintentionally entering into this situation to begin with

I haven't found any videos actually duplicating a base to final turn both right and left skidding turns, the scenario where most people get into trouble when they have overshot that turn to final.

Last week N727RP, a twin engine turbo, went in close to my house. Someone got a cell phone video of it headed straight down and in a slow spin. All 5 people on board were killed. To my knowledge there's been no official release as to the cause of this accident however it looks like the spin stall. He was probably around 500' AGL flying slow, elevated angle of attack and a luggage for 5, and three ppl. in the back causing the CG to move aft.

Interesting video. Even though you are banked to the right, the incipient spin rolls to the left. Why is that? Is it because the right turn is not coordinated (see instruments at 4:06), so you are slipping right and the left wing stalls first? Anyway, what happens (right bank/turn, left spin) is contrary to what I've seen in several other spin videos. Can you comment? Thanks, -Hugh

+Hugh Secker-Walker What Jason has done is has stalled, encouraging a wing to drop by the use of the uncoordinated controls. The wing drop is typically contrary to the bank angle. The incipient spin is simply a follow-on condition of the dropped-wing stall.

I've never gotten into a spin, I'm only 10 hours in, I definitely want to know how to get out of it in case I ever get into one.

My friend sent me dis nd now i have to watch it but its lowkey fun 😂

Did a spin tn!

Thanks for the demo. You call this a spin. Is this what others call a fully developed stall or a wing stall?

We have spin recovery in our PPL syllabus in Canada! Not in our PPL flight test though!

Thanks for sharing, Jason!

SHOULD WE LOOK FOR A GOOD SPIN DOCTOR AFTER WE TRY THIS.

I think I did a spin once and didn't know it, until today. It felt like a hammerhead turn. I got lucky, plenty altitude.

Wow! Thanks for sharing, William!

Sad that many flight schools do not teach spin recovery...they say it's too dangerous....How foolish. Great video....Thanks!
