Spins in the Tweet were like Ground Hog Day—every contact ride did spins. My IP put in a spin, “say you got it, save us”. Then pounded on me for reciting the boldface procedure. I didn’t push stick forward correctly and accelerated the rate which made him laugh and me more confused. Start over he said. Rudder and Ailerons-Neutral Stick abruptly full aft! Spin slowed down. Rudder-Opposite Spin Direction and Stick- Full Forward. Presto, the normal world with rapidly increasing speed.

Thirty years later, doing spins at NTPS, it all came back.
