Oh, so the ones that become transport aircraft pilots don't ever get to practice stall and spin recoveries, then? That'd make me more jittery before going on a plane the next time... I think most of them train stalls in the simulator on a regular basis. Spins however... I might be wrong, but to my knowledge, most transport category airplanes would break on spin recovery. Stefan |

Besides, spins are aerobatic maneuvers and you are required to have parachutes unless you are doing it as part of a certificate or rating. Nope - you don't need to be "doing it as part of a certificate or rating". Hilton Cites please? I believe he's referring to 91.307(c). It says : (c) Unless each occupant of the aircraft is wearing an approved parachute, no pilot of a civil aircraft carrying any person (other than a crewmember) may execute any intentional maneuver that exceeds— (1) A bank of 60 degrees relative to the horizon; or (2) A nose-up or nose-down attitude of 30 degrees relative to the horizon. "C" basically restricts the rule to pilots of aircraft that are carrying persons other than crewmembers. So, I can go out and spin my Cherokee solo, but if I'm carrying a passenger, we both require chutes. Then there is another exception : (d) Paragraph (c) of this section does not apply to— (1) Flight tests for pilot certification or rating; or (2) Spins and other flight maneuvers required by the regulations for any certificate or rating when given by— (i) A certificated flight instructor; or (ii) An airline transport pilot instructing in accordance with §61.67 of this chapter. So, the parachute rule also does not apply if I'm doing a flight test, or if I'm performing spins or other maneuvers required for any certificate or rating, as long as there's an instructor. It doesn't say that I have to be in training for a particular rating. The (2) part of the rule excepts the type of manuevers, it doesn't require that you be training for a specific rating. This rule allows an instructor to demonstrate a spin to a PPL student without requiring that they wear parachutes. Even though there is no spin training required in the PPL, the maneuver itself is allowed because it is "required by the regulations for any certificate or rating". To me (not being a CFI), this means that I can spin my Cherokee without chutes either solo, or with an instructor, but if the person in the next seat is not an instructor or ATP, chutes are required.

, Bob Gardner wrote: You will never experience a stall in a "commercial" aircraft. If you do you may not survive it. Ref: Air Disaster Volume 3 by Macarthur Job April 26. 1994 A300 Airbus flying from Yaipei to Nagoya in Japan. On approach to land in clear conditions at night and fully configured for landing it passed the outer marker. But 3nm from touch down it briefly levelled off. Descent continued but at decreasing speed and nose up pitch increased. At 1nm and 500ft to go engine power was increased, then after a brief interval cut again. Several seconds later power was increased again and it nosed up into a steep climb. The crew called 'Going around' but the climb increase sharply. It climber steeper and steeper with the speed falling and after gaining 1500ft it stalled. The nose came up a bit after the stall but it struck the ground very hard. Only 7 passengers survived out of 256. It is easy to write the above bare facts, what happened required a lot of pages to explain. It depended on not recognising what was happening, misunderstanding whether or not the autopilot was engaged and a misunderstanding of how the aircraft would respond with the autopilot engaged. Except in Land and Go Around mode the auto pilot disconnects when force is applied to the control column. In those modes the autopilot reacts by changing the tail plane trim to cancel the crew input. It seems the Go Around Lever may have been accidentally engaged. -- David CL Francis |

OK OK... What I meant was, every normal landing (other than short field
techniques) would involve a stall. I guess I have to be more careful in my choice of words :-) "Peter Duniho" wrote in : "Andrew Sarangan" wrote in message 7... I have to respectfully disagree. A short field landing is where you plonk the airplane on the runway while it still has some flying speed. Sorry...weren't you the guy who just today posted "every landing involves a stall"? Usenet's going to be just that much less fun if you picking apart your *own* posts. Anyway, to each their own regarding technique. However, with a nice steep approach and low airspeed, you can have both minimum flying speed (or even a stall), and still have a rapid flare with no float. It's all about keeping your approach speed sufficiently slow. Yes, if you fly your approach at 1.3 Vs0, a full stall landing will mean a nice long float. But that's not the correct airspeed for a short field landing. Anyway, I take it you now agree with what was my main point: that it's NOT true that "every landing involves a stall". Thank you for your cooperation. Pete |

John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) So CFI's get to do stuff that we can not do without them. With no chutes, CFI's and students, and others all splat the same.

Well, from what I understand, the generally accepted aviation definition of
a "stall" is when a lifting portion of the aircraft is no longer lifting. Given that, if the lifting parts never stalled the aircraft would never stop flying. "G.R.

Are there Cherokees that permit intentional spins? The Arrow and Warrior POHs prohibit them. Yes. It depends on the year and equipment configuration. Most -140s are approved for intentional spins in the Utility category. Many early body (pre '73) Cherokee -180s were also approved for intentional spins in the Utility category. In '73 the -180 fuselage was stretched 5 inches, which moved the C.G. back and intentional spins were no longer approved. The Archer and Warrior both use the longer fuselage and are not approved. Note : There are some exceptions for -140 and -180 models equipped with the large fresh air blower in the tail. You should check the paperwork and placards on an individual airplane to determine if it is approved. Also, the PA28 is very sensitive to C.G. in a spin. W&B MUST be in the Utility category.
