One should keep in mind is that there are plenty of very good aerobatic pilots with no instrument experience who have done thousands of spins and can actually keep the greasy side up better than you ever could(when appropriate).
So yeah, it is quite possible with some pilots. Just do another spin like you did a hundred time previous in your CAP 10 and recover just like you did a hundred times previously.
Hmmmm. 421Dog is USA based. Scared of spins are we, after never having been trained how to do one?
OMG OMG
And 99% of the GA public have no business getting close to a spin. They are more likely to survive inadvertent flight into IMC by trying to keep the wings level than to spin through it. Full stop. Saying anything else is just wrong. Yeah, aerobatic pilots could probably, but that is not a large group, and you even suggesting it should be tried by the regular flying public is just wrong. Plenty of experience in aviation, never done a spin. The reason the US stopped teaching spins to private pilots was that too many people died getting instruction in how to do them.....
