I have over the past year been doing an aerobatic refresher course on a T67C. I originally did aeros in the UAS ona Bulldog.

I have just about managed to stop a precision spin on 1 1/2 turns, but would have difficulty stopping in 1 1/4.

My instructor has told me that failure to hold the control column back on the stops until full opposite rudder is applied leads to a high rotational spin. I have tried to pursuade him to demo this, so that should it occur due to my error, I would know what to expect, and how to recover. He is extremely reluctant to demo this.

Does anyone have any experience of high rotational spins and recovery technique??
