CASA apparently has decided that there will be no more spin training after consultation:
As a result, CASA will ensure clarification and further consistency with the position taken by ICAO and other national aviation authorities—to replace the phrase ‘training and testing in the induction and recovery from the incipient stage of a spin’ with ‘spin avoidance and the recovery from a stall with a wing drop.
This is apparently despite:
.......a high level of support for training and testing of spin recovery. However, this support is balanced with the recognition that there are fewer flight instructors and a shrinking fleet of aircraft capable of delivering this outcome.
I wonder why that would be?
I also wonder what new regulations will be enacted to criminalise an accidental spin and prevent flying anywhere near the edge of the flight envelope.
