On the spin topic, though, I asked two different instructors (at two different schools) for some spin recovery demonstrations. Although it was probably frowned upon by the FBO's, both CFI's were happy to oblige.  We had a hell of a time getting the *152* to drop into a spin butthe 172 did it with ease. Maybe it was instructor technique, maybe it was other factors... No, that's about right. A 150/152 is damn near impossible to spin, but it will if you do it right. It comes out of the spin as soon as you let go.

I believe one of the Stinson models advertised that doing what you did into the ground was a legit emergency maneuver. It was done and the pilot walked away. The AN-2 was a single engine airliner designed to do just that in the event of engine failure at night. It was done more than once, successfully. Michael
