Just remember that spins in landing flap are prohibited - all explained in the manual.
I'm not expecting anyone to try to intentionally spin, but just fly as you normally would, and
"mishandle" it like a person might inadvertently do; eg, a steady, coordinated 20 deg banked
turn while you slow down, or perhaps a shallow skidded turn at slower and slower speeds.

I'm a relatively new 20 a driver ( 50 hrs ) but my third flight I intentionally spun it in both directions on purpose with plenty of altitude ( and a parachute ). I would rather know where the edge is . I haven't spun in landing flap setting. VNE is around 65kts if I recall.
Thanks to the internet I was able to benefit from all the experiences of others . I am about 80% aft cg and found no bad characteristics.
Max flap setting/spoilers is like landing a 1-26 , Just don't do a full stall landing it will drop like a rock .
