Moral of the story is just because a pilot reports a horror story about
flight characteristics, doesn't mean that the plane is the culprit.
That's Charlie Kohler you are talking about and the post is on LML.
I only know of two other related spin incidents where the pilot
lived.
One was the ES video - also on LML.
The other was the Columbia 400 spin test - a design wihich spin tested
years earlier but the production item was just enough
different that it wouldn't recover without a chute (this was in
2003).
There's no data to support the assertion that an
LIVP in a spin is recoverable.
There is less data to support the assertion that
your particular LIVP in a spin is recoverable.
Not that I'm any expert.
