"...but I am not going to take this Lancair = near a stall/spin, period."

 

Followed by:

 

“What you really mean is that you're not going to know = what to do when and if you stall
because you've avoided the very simple training”

 

Bill, the two statements are not necessarily related. The = initial training for a Lancair needs to include exposure to the stall to = assess the speed at which it is likely to occur. That assessed, continued = testing of that seems superfluous given the mind set should be clearly engraved to = avoid the area whereby such a condition of flight occurs.
