As a matter-of-fact it does not want to stay in a legitimate spin after 2-3 turns, morphing instead into a nose low spiral. The CJ is a forgiving, docile, aerobatic performer. However, competent instruction, and HOURS of practice on your routine (muscle memory) would be the safest course of action before attempting to perform at a show. I've been in the absolute worst spots in my CJ during practices and a time or two at shows and it has never failed to treat me with respect. Bon Chance with your performance. -------- Keith McKinley 700HS X26 Sebastian, FL Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=418842#418842 ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 09:11:03 PM PST US From: cjpilot710@aol.com Subject: Re: Yak-List: Re: Aerobatic with CJ6A My CJ has a M-14p in it. With a GIB and full fuel, I can put the airplane in a flat spin. I do a normal spin entry, but leave the power on. When you release the back stick pressure, the airplane continues to spin, but more importantly, the stick will not automatically go to neutral. It will stay in your stomach, and requires about 3 lbs of pressure to move it forward. You can also recover by closing the throttle. Now I have not - but have been told that increasing power you can flatten the spin even more and have seen video of a Yak doing just that. You are correct about the CJ not wanting to spin nor morphing into a nose low spiral. However I have found that when my C/G is at or very near the rear limit the CJ will spin normally. I believe a lot of CJs after leaving China and having those back radios removed, tend to be nose heavy even when ballast is added. That maybe part of the reason and if done solo too.
