Cirrus SR22 crash in Gloucestershire N936CT

There are too many variables in a spin so no aircraft, even aircraft approved for spinning, is immune from the spin going rogue. In fact some aerobatic types have a history of pilots not recovering from a spin.

The BRS is a great concept and Cirrus now seems to be building a superior survivability safety record, possibly due to better training.

Now if they built an off road tailwheel version…

No twin is certified for spinning

Adding to that – twins aren’t even tested for spinning, even to the bare minimum of the 1.5 turn required for any single to be certified. It is not part of the programme.

I’d love to see spin testing for an A380… that would be an impressive sight.

Well you might just know that if you google the subject you’ll find an interesting clip about spin testing on twin engined aircraft:

Ok, let me rephrase that, then. Spin testing for twins is not required for certifcation.
