Os estudantes pilotos são obrigados a ter treinamento de entrada e recuperação de spin?

Nos EUA, lembro-me de rodar e recuperar vezes 3 em um Cessna 150 Aerobat (em 1994), e me sentindo enjoado por um bom tempo depois disso. Acho que agora essas manobras só precisam ser demonstradas. Consulte AC 61-67C, o trecho a seguir

CHAPTER 3. FLIGHT TRAINING: SPINS 300. SPIN TRAINING. Spin training is required for flight instructor-airplane and flight instructor-glider applicants only. Upon completion of the training, the applicant’s logbook or training record should be endorsed by the flight instructor who provided the training. A sample endorsement of spin training for flight instructor applicants is available in the current edition of AC 61-65, Certification: Pilots and Flight and Ground Instructors.

a. Spin training must be accomplished in an aircraft that is approved for spins. Before practicing intentional spins, the AFM or POH should be consulted for the proper entry and recovery techniques.

b. The training should begin by practicing both power-on and power-off stalls to familiarize the applicant with the aircraft's stall characteristics. Spin avoidance, incipient spins, actual spin entry, spin, and spin recovery techniques should be practiced from an altitude above 3,500 feet AGL.

c. Spin avoidance training should consist of stalls and maneuvering during slow flight using realistic distractions such as those listed in Chapter 2. Performance is considered unsatisfactory if it becomes necessary for the instructor to take control of the aircraft to avoid a fully developed spin.

d. Incipient spins should be practiced to train the instructor applicant to recover from a student's poorly performed stall or unusual attitude that could lead to a spin. Configure the aircraft for a power-on or power-off stall, and continue to apply back elevator pressure. As the stall occurs, apply right or left rudder and allow the nose to yaw toward the stalled wing. Release the spin inducing controls and recover as the spin begins by applying opposite rudder and forward elevator pressure. The instructor should discuss control application in the recovery.

e. Spin entry, spin, and spin recovery should be demonstrated by the instructor and repeated in both directions by the applicant.

(1) Apply the entry procedure for a power-off stall. As the airplane approaches a stall, smoothly apply full rudder in the direction of desired spin rotation and continue to apply back elevator to the limit of travel. The ailerons should be neutral.

(2) Allow the spin to develop, and be fully recovered no later than one full turn. Observe the airspeed indicator during the spin and subsequent recovery to ensure that it does not reach the red line (VNE).

(3) Follow the recovery procedures recommended by the manufacturer in the AFM or POH. In most aircraft, spin recovery techniques consist of retarding power (if in a powered aircraft), applying opposite rudder to slow the rotation, neutralizing the ailerons, applying positive forward elevator movement to break the stall, neutralizing the rudder as the spinning stops, and returning to level flight.

f. During spin training if a spin is not fully developed, the aircraft may instead go into a spiral. A spiral may be recognized by a rapidly increasing airspeed after the attempted spin entry. In an actual spin, the airspeed normally stabilizes below stall speed). The pilot must recognize a spiral and initiate immediate recovery to prevent exceeding structural limits of the airplane.

301. SPIN TRAINING AND PARACHUTES. Title 14 CFR part 91, § 91.307(c) prohibits the pilot of a civil aircraft from executing any intentional maneuver that exceeds 60° of bank relative to the horizon, or exceeds 30° nose-up or nose-down attitude relative to the horizon, unless an approved parachute is worn by each occupant (other than a crewmember). Section 91.307(d) states, in part, that § 91.307(c) does not apply to flight tests for a Pilot Certificate or rating, or spins and other flight maneuvers required by the regulations, for any certificate or rating when given by a certificated flight instructor (CFI) or an airline transport pilot (ATP) instructing in accordance with part 61, § 61.167.

a. Section 61.183(i) requires an applicant for a Flight Instructor Certificate airplane or glider rating to receive flight training in stall awareness, spin entry, spins, and spin recovery procedures. The applicant must also possess and demonstrate instructional proficiency in these areas to receive the certificate or rating.

b. Because spin entry, spins, and spin recovery are required for a Flight Instructor Certificate airplane or glider rating, a person receiving instruction from an authorized instructor need not wear an approved parachute while instruction is being provided in these maneuvers.

The instructor providing the training is also not required to wear an approved parachute while providing this flight training.
