The incipient spinning characteristics of general aviation airplanes were studied. Angular rates in pitch, yaw, and roll were measured through the stall during the incipient spin and throughout the recovery along with control positions, angle of attack, and angle of sideslip. The characteristic incipient spinning motion was determined from a given set of entry conditions. The sequence of recovery controls were varied at two distinct points during the incipient spin, and the effect on recovery characteristics was examined. Aerodynamic phenomena associated with flow over the aft portion of the fuselage, vertical stabilizer, and rubber are described.
