Hi l.garey,
I was civilian-trained from scratch in the UK at A.S.T. Perth (Scone) 1966 (see eponymous thread), and I did spinning from a glide on my fourth flight, having done stalling from a glide on the same flight. The codes used by the school were 10G and 8G respectively. My first take-off and landing came on the fifth flight (school codes 11 & 12).
