The point is, it's assumed that after 5 turns the spin is fully
established and nothing new will happen in the next 27 turns. That said,
a spin is not a recommended method to escape cloud in a modern glider.

Fully established? Flat and unrecoverable maybe. Also, I couldn't get
our club Blanik to spin (dual) three times before it would end up in a
spiral dive.
