Spinning

Hi Guys,

My view is that if one is only to be taught spin avoidance, then at the very least every student should experience a fully developed spin, if only just once.

Otherwise how do you know what it is you are learning to avoid?

I dread a time when there will be instructors who have never experienced a spin teaching students to avoid the spin when neither has the foggiest idea what a spin is like, both are terrified of it, and neither would not know how to get out of the spin should spin avoidance training accidentally result in the real McCoy.
