| Jun 5 at 17:19 | comment | added | Fattie | Am i correct in guessing that something like this .. pilotinstitute.com/stall-turn-hammerhead-explained .. is totally impossible in a glider? :O | |
| Jun 5 at 17:17 | comment | added | Fattie | Thank you so much. Sorry, one thing not clear: "In glider aerobatics spins and inverted spins are performed routinely." In that sentence, what is meant by "spin"? (I understood the bulk of your answer to explain that: "gliders generally can not do a flat spin".) Is the explanation that: in your 3e para, should I read that as "spin" is aka "spiral dive" ..? And what is an inverted spin? (Sounds terrifying!) | |
