The Advanced Spin Training Module follows the same building-block approach used in the renowned Emergency Maneuver Training–EMT®–Program and is intended for pilots who own Pitts, Christen Eagle, Extra 300, and other similar high performance aerobatic aircraft. Pilots taking advanced spin training will gain practical experience with upright and inverted flat spins, transition spins, and aggravated spins resulting from botched maneuvers. The module consists of two separate lessons and can be completed in one day.
By combining EMT® Module I (Stall/Spin Awareness) with the Advanced Spin Training Module, pilots who own high performance aerobatic aircraft will now be able to explore the entire spin envelope in a structured environment, in their own aircraft. Many of the persistent myths and misconceptions about stalls and spins will be dispelled in the process.
