During a lesson on stalls, I accidentally spun a 152. After a few rotations, I put both hands up like I was being held at gunpoint and announced to the instructor, "You got it..."

LOLOLOL - but, my good doctor, that is HOW you recover from a spin...stop flying. Let the aircraft fly itself.

(Oh, and throttle back so you don't overspin the engine, and kick opposite rudder when it stabalizes, and PULL UP!)

1) Throttle back

2) Controlls to neutral

3) Backhand screaming passangers

4) Observe direction of rotation

5) Kick opposite rudder

6) Watch spin stop

7) PULL UP!

Used to do this to my buddies, after I took them on the "lunch ride..." LOL
