And yes the longer moment arm will increase the time required for spin recovery, but it will also make it a more stable IFR platform in pitch and yaw. Whoa there. A longer nose moment arm will _decrease_ stability, not increase it. As for spin recovery, increasing or decreasing depends on the weight of the engine and the moment arm (or arm^2, technically).
