I'll have a go at recording a track and see how the numbers stack up on the guages.

No end of problem trying to get a video, crashes etc wen trying to use fraps with playing a track..

Tried a few spins in a MkIIa (I remembered was in the Mk1a in the online mission I mentioned before)

With the MkIIa in a power on spin (2600rpm, full throttle pull the stick back until it spins) I was taking about 1000 feet to stop the autorotation, and around the 1500 feet before I got to the 150mph speed before recovering as stated in manual page in this thread.

This is less than the 2000 foot required to recover as quoted by you Crumpp.

The flick into the spin is very brutal and the plane is unstable at the high angle of attack required to enter the spin.

Will try the same with a conventional spin entry when I get some time.

Cheers!
