yes I know, it is not rated for this manuver, but has anybody intentionaly
or Inadvertently done a spin in the IV P,
if so, can you share the experiance

One or so years ago, on this list, someone reported doing a spin in a IV. I don't remember the exact information but because of what I do remember I thought that I had better put something in writing right now.

The spin started at 20,000 ft. They tried everything that they could and finally recovered at 2,000 ft.

If I were you I would start at 40,000 ft with a forward center of gravity. With experience, you should be able to work down from there. Don't forget your parachute. What the heck you can always build(buy) another one.

Good Luck,
