Surviving Spins

by Fred G. DeLacerda

Spins are one of the most complex phenomena of aviation and a constant danger to pilots. But until recently, little scientific information on the mechanics of spins was available to general aviators. Surviving Spins offers pilots, student pilots, and flight instructors documented information on the normal upright spin of light general aviation airplanes. It consolidates and clarifies NASA research that was not readily accessible or easily understood.
