As an instructor, I practice this scenario in a Grob 103. Choose a
direction and nail the rudder to the floor. We practice holding a
heading and use of spoilers. Pretty much everyone agrees you could
probably crash land and with good timing and luck everything will get to
the ground unharmed. Maintaining airspeed prevents hint of a stall
spin.

Good advice. I regularly slip my 201 Libelle quite hard - full or near-
full rudder deflection - so I'm up to speed with its handling in a hard
slip, both with and without spoiler deployment.

However as I usually slip it in a straight line when the brakes don't
shed height fast enough, steering it with the ailerons in a full-rudder
slip sounds like a useful thing to know.
