SPIT MKI ON FLICK MANOEUVRES


Warnings on the dangers of high speed flick manoeuvers but no real dramas on Lower speed flick manoeuvres, makes sense as no chance of real overstress or excedence of rolling G etc. As you can see pilots are being encouraged to experiment with these

The section in the Spit MKV manual on Stalling and Spinning.

intersting to note for the neg G cut-out debate : in the Rolling paragraph of teh Aerobatic section : "The roll being barrelled just enough to keep the engine running throughout"

Def even with an MkV, G as to be kept positive to say the least

OOhh and pls do take attention to the cruise speed

results in what is termed “autorotation” wherein the
airplane follows a downward corkscrew path.

Can you force an aircraft to spin by control input from a 1G level stalled condition?

Sure!!

What are you doing with your accelerations to the aircraft when you input those controls?

Think about it.
