Very straightforward honest stall classic british trainer,should stall at about 42kts clean,38 knots flapped.Common to get a wing drop and expect it it on flapped stalls.If prompt standard recovery action is not taken the aircraft will depart into a spin.The spin is pretty standard but quite nose low and rotation increases rapidly hence the three turn limitation.If you don,t get the stick far enough forward during the recovery action spin may restart in the opposite direction,also any entry other than power off/ailerons neutral may result in a relatively flat spin.The stall characteristics are one reason it is best not to drag the aeroplane in power on short field landings as some jodellers do.If your only trained to the modern syllabus on current type training aircraft best get some dual from an instructor or PFA coach who is famliar with that generation of aircraft (many aren,t but won,t admit it).Congratulations on buying an aircraft with delightful handling qualities and which is both economical and fun to fly.I,ve be been flying the breed for 34 years non stop and cannot speak to highly of them.No owners club but we all congregate on the forum on www.rollason-condor.co.uk hope to see you there.
