Many, many years ago, I was sent a paper on the Baron's spin characteristics. It wasn't pretty. Not sure if this is related to this event, or not.

I don't believe unrecoverable was the problem. It was unrecoverable with 100% safe outcome (but, honestly, I'm not remembering the details, so I'll stop right here).

I hope they put spin chutes on them !!!
