Spin
21
Usually the spin occurs when the brake is being pulled too hard on one side with the speed being too
low. To enter this situation intentionally, flying at the speed slightly higher than V min, pull one brake hard
and release the opposite one.
ATTENTION: Never do this maneuver near the ground and without the sufficient experience.
To recover, release the pulled down brake when the canopy is above you and be prepared to prevent
asymmetric collapses which can occur during the recovery. If the brake is released while the canopy is
moving backwards, the pilot can fall into the wing.
