Initial CFI question?

[MauleSkinner]

I would appreciate it if you can check this out as to what if anything is stated in the FAA Handbookd on this. But the guidance I have received on this is that the initial CFI-ASE or the CFI-AME require spin endorsement. Ns that the CFI-I(A) does not require a spin endorsement.

Interestingly, the student who tried to spin the airplane closest to the ground (400 feet or so) was an instrument student.

My personal opinion, then, is that it SHOULD be required for the CFI-I(A), but I guess opinions are like...

Fly safe!

I agree, and I'll go even further to say that spins should be required and tested for the private and done to one turn or even more turns in an aerobatic airplane, but that will never happen.

But as far as getting into a spin during IFR training: Highly unlikely unless the student is given an extreem (too extreem) unusual attitude.

This particular student got a little behind on the approach, and THOUGHT he was doing a slip to landing. Highly entertaining.

Sounds like this student has big problems!
