did spin training for my CFI checkride in 2 weeks, it was so much fun, very eye-opening too to see how inherently stable a good Cessna 172 is! Old, but well maintained, great engine recently redone, and stable(:
One of the neatest (albeit only around 5 min or so) moments in my aviation journey: I had the honor and pleasure of meeting John and Martha at Oshkosh in 2021 and took a picture with them which I have on display in our airplane room of the house :) I've watched them for years. Started out on hand me down VHS and then purchased their interactive programs to get me through my PPL ground school; now using them for my A&P writtens; and purchased their instrument and commercial programs for my next steps. My dad used some of their curriculum back in the late 80s/early 90s when he was going through his CFII/MEI stuff too. We've always enjoyed them. Their style is sometimes quirky with the cheesy jokes, but, so am I, so I like it, LOL - it sticks in your memory. 'Keep the pointy end forward, the dirty side down, and please, stay out of the trees!' The Kings are a true gem and blessing to the aviation community. Thank you King Schools!
I first started flying 22 years ago in Casper, Wyoming. Only flew 36 hours but when I returned to the UK, I didn't continue but restarted from scratch a few months ago. Even though I don't have a PPL (yet), I find these CFI videos to be incredibly helpful because as an aerospace engineering graduate, I find myself wanting to learn more than in the syllabus because I feel to understand what's being taught, I have to first appreciate all the details. This is a blessing and a curse. Blessing because I learn more. Curse because it's an information overload and taking me a lot longer.
Question! Why is it not taught in spun recovery, to first determine the airplanes direction of "ROTATION" then apply corrective action. The TURN CO-ORDINATOR is an exelant quick reference instrument. This is what I was taught, clear wheather spin training is one thing,but consider the unexpected situation you didnt expect.
You should reference the time because I'm off to another video before finishing this BUT an aircraft with an unchanged lifting surface but heavier will stall sooner than if weighing less.
It is a push forward to break the stall, then a gradual pull back to recover level flight. Some aircraft will more or less fly themselves out of the the stall at the point that you stop the spin with the rudder. But don't count on that to save you.
I wonder if it's actually beneficial to keep the engine power when a Right directional spin occurs since the engine rotation will now counteract the spin?

Great to hear!

Thank you King, and God bless you
This guy I started to watch in 2008 I believe, now still he is in charge! Keep do what you do guys.

Remember him from msfs! Good old days
This is the best way to learn

Very good sir thank you 🙇🏽♂️
Thank you very much sir !
Do this mean if you are heavier you can go longer at that angle before stalling than if lighter? A little confusing how he said it.
You should reference the time because I'm off to another video before finishing this BUT an aircraft with an unchanged lifting surface but heavier will stall sooner than if weighing less.
Can you please clarify what elevator - forward control means (ie push or pull)? Thanks
