Pre-takeoff checklist
After watching this video;
https://www.skilledpilots.com/video-private-pilot-unintentionally-gets-his-aircraft-into-a-flat-spin-and-loses-2800-feet-in-40-seconds/
It got me wondering... I've never practiced flat spins nor have I read into them. What are the recovery steps? Are the recovery steps same as a regular spin?
-Power to Idle
-Ailerons Neutral
-Opposite Rudder
-Elevator Back
-Apply Throttle as required
I'm thinking if you were in a flat spin, I would try adding power and push the elevator forward, maybe try opposite rudder to stop the turn... Thoughts?
