215 hours (of which 3 were on type)
I admit I just stumbled upon this thread but as a former ( civilian) instructor with 100's of spins in 4-5 SE types I don't like the looks of that.
Statistically in a "dead" zone of high accident probability experience wise and only 3 hrs on type.
That's too little to be doing aerobatics in that type.
Were aero's part of the checkout procedure? Verbal warnings about the stall/spin characteristics?
No offense intended but was the fact that he was an RAF cadet pilot enough?
