For real, the FW world learned about this years ago. You can teach spins all day long on many airframe types; some are not recommended. BUT, some spins can become unrecoverable, so there are limitations on spin training.

Maybe the RW world needs to do the same with VRS training

altitude won't keep the tailboom on... +1/-0 you are correct, 5/12/2022 4:33:43 PM

The recovery loads the tail rotor very forcibly. Maybe it's not (NT) +0/-0 being "chopped" technically, but snapped 10/23/2022 8:15:07 AM
