Well I had a nice surprise I wasn’t expecting tonight. I just had put the plane into a left spin and was starting to push the throttle in to start the flat spin and noticed, hey why are the blades not turning ….. hmmm, opposite rudder, gain some speed, and turn the starter as the blades started to want to turn on there own and back up we went.
I know what happened as this plane has a past history with a low idle. The new throttle handle I added has a lot more leverage when retarding the throttle. I know we always harp on pull all the throttle out to recover from a spin but be aware that there could be the possibility of not enough. All was fine and it actually made for a great training flight. Definitely made this evening memorable
