Spinning (mis)concepts by
Arnold Pieper
1) "The spin is caused primarily by the position of the controls" - True,

Nearly Mid-Air Collision at Estrella by
Terry Claussen
A lousy end to what was a beautiful day of soaring, thanks to the USMC
and my own lack of vigilance.
Yesterday a cold front was bearing down on Phoenix. While in other
