ta 152 and spit 14 spin

How do you recover the spin in these two when the tail drops out?

I don't fly them much and about half the time I do I kill myself because of this.

I usually put the elevator trim full down and rudder turn out of it.

If I recall correctly, both of these aircraft have oddities with their fuel tanks and the Tail stall's severity can be harder to escape depending on what fuel is where; In the Spit, always drain the Top tank first and in the 152 the aft/aux tanks.

If you can find Sukov, he's probably the best 152 guy there is and I would bet he knows all the tricks of getting out of a 152 stall, as I usually needed about 7000 or more feet  :uhoh
Yarbles I remember was often found in the 14, but I've not seen him in years, so try and find Bruv :)

In the Ta152 just drop one notch of flaps.

You’ll get faster results by pushing the stick full forward, followed by full rudder opposite the direction of the spin.

Since 1936 the methodology has been just as Puma described.

To add to that - Nasa did some testing in the 70's and came up with the acronym P.A.R.E.

P ower Off
A ilerons Neutral
R udder Full opposite of the direction of the spin.
E levator full forward

The 4 actions should be performed as close to simultaneously as possible.

Ya, this work in all the other aircraft fine. It doesn't as well in these two for some reason as the tail drops out and the problem is getting the nose back down.

The top tank drains into the bottom tank in the Spit. The rear tank fills the forward tank in the 152.

Curious as to what each aircraft’s flight manual states about fuel balance with regard to out of control flight events.

Thanks for the info.

How would you send the money for the sound pack?

In the 152, if it gets fully into the flat/tail down spin, my best luck has been to kill the engine, drop gear, then rudder opposite and elevator down.  Once the nose gets down, retract gear and start the engine.

It still takes a lot of air to get it back.

By sending a months dues to HTC. As to that, I am taking the family to New Zealand where we intend to resettle. I may not be back in the game, but I do intend to continue making updates to the sound pack. At some time I will explain how it's all done.

What is the measure of greatness in the Ta152? I mean my kill streak went as high as 300:1 (more actually, as I still haven't died).
