This thread is nothing to do with spin safety, it started due to general anxiety. The two are different. Mr Cessna builds strong(ish) aircraft. They are capable of taking a lot of punishment. Providing you don't mistreat or mishandle them too much they will normally stay in one piece. So to the OP, firstly may I suggest that you have no choice other than to trust Mr Cessna and his products. Secondly, I'm glad to hear you have found an instructor you can trust. By all means de-sensitise yourself to spinning by regularly doing them but you may need more professional psychological help on the ground to overcome your overall fear of flying. Bump, bangs, thuds and the unexpected are always around the corner and most of the time you have "quickly do nothing" to deal with them. Not until that is learnt will you be happy in an aircraft.
