It spins nicely too, though you have to be fairly brutal to get it to depart[1]. Mine is easily the most spin-resistant single-seater I've flown. [1] Pulling the nose up 30 degrees and crossing rudder and ailerons as it stalls generally does the trick. Recovery is normal, though the small control deflections mean it takes 1/2 a turn to recover rather than the 1/4 turn you expect from a Pegase or Discus 1. -- martin@ | Martin Gregorie gregorie. | Essex, UK org | |

Usually when the type certificate, flight manual and cockpit placards
include the phrase "Acrobatics, including spinning, prohibited" it makes me a wee bit reluctant to try the maneuvers myself. |

Glad its only "Usually" ;-) What can I say? Performing prohibited maneuvers is the only time I get to feel like a test pilot! More seriously, there are some really nice videos on that YouTube channel and I'm looking forward to seeing more featuring the Libelle. |
