A fully instrumented, low-wing, single-engine general aviation airplane has been spin tested. Several tail configurations, wing leading-edge modifications, fuselage modifications, moment-of-inertia variations, center-of-gravity positions, and control inputs have been tested to determine their effect on spinning and spin recovery. Results indicate that wing airfoil design can significantly influence airplane spin and recovery characteristics and can overpower the effects of tail design. Results also point out a need to determine limitations of such factors as Reynolds number in model spin test techniques and high angle-of-attack aerodynamics.
