I agree with what you said regarding exploring the envelope I agree with you, Lowell (and I also agree with Dave! ;-) Here in Norway, we have to do a "periodic" test with an instructor every second year. I did mine a week ago. After a few touch & go on two and three points, I am asked to climb 500 ft on a 360 left turn, then descent 500 ft on a 360 right turn. Easy, if you watch the altimeter and the needle rising 180 degrees for a 360 degrees turn. Then I am asked to do a straight ahead stall. Easy, my Kitfox mushes down beautifully. Then I am asked to do a stall in a turn. As for the previous years, I answer "No, I don't like it. This is how a spin starts!" And my instructor says " ... okay!" ;-) My point is, we all have things we like to do and things we don't. We fly for fun so let's keep it fun.
