I am but a sprog pilot compared to the giants in this thread -
- but why would anyone suggest trying to recover from a spin without firmly inducing nose-down pitch - ?
I can't really see any advantage to stick-free, rudder-only recovery technique aside from eliminating the possibility of pro-spin adverse yaw, and I would think the importance of getting the nose down and reducing the angle of attack is greater than the risk of accidentally applying pro-spin aileron.
