Stall / Spin awareness for student pilots
A flying club where I sometimes fly has started advertising stall / spin training in a Chipmunk (they normally train in PA28s).
They say that in order to under take the course students must have completed exercises 10a and 10b, and that the course is a compulsory part of the syllabus and students will not be entered for their skills test until they have completed this training.
My understanding of the syllabus was that lessons 10A and 10B (slow flight and stall/spin awareness) had replaced spinning some time ago, so I’m wondering when the CAA introduced this mandatory training, and what clubs are doing now if they are training in aircraft not approved for spinning and aerobatics?
