Hi All, I wrote the attached article and it received a few comments, both on and off the web. I should have summarised as follows. 1. If you enter a spin a modern glider below 1,000 ft. AGL you will almost certainly die. No amount of prior training will make much difference. 2.Your first defen

Sorry for this long response but I am passionate about this issue and some clarifications are necessary. It is only true that most spins can be prevented if 1.5Vs is maintained. A mishandled entry of more than 1 "G" steady is possible at much higher speeds. (E.g. Mishandling and Snap rolls) Many

My knowledge is old but I believe still valid. 1. Spin training is done, fully developed spin is trained but emphasis is placed on recognition of incipient spin. 2. Spinning is an aerobatic manouvre. It is not permitted without the appropriate training and (aerobatic) endorsment in the license. S

Hi Harry, Merry Christmas to you. You have of course (and as usual), correctly identified the real problem. It is safe speed near the ground. Maintain that and there will be no chance of spinning. Spinning is a secondary effect of flying too slow, yet somehow it is now the spin and not the

Actually, I was thinking a flush mounted static probe rather than a pitot. It would be interesting to see if a transducer could pick up the pressure fluctuations from separated flow and be able to see the difference from attached flow. After doing some work with the RAAF's P-3 wing tips, I am pret

Might be possible. The frequency of the AC component of the pressure and the amplitude should change as the flow becomes turbulent. AC is good as offsets, temperature effects don't cause problems. Silicon pressure tranducers easily go out to one kilohertz frequency response unless they are the o
