<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Clearly this works for you, but I am still
unconvinced. Wouldn't more pos incidence in the wing, to assist spin
entries, only work for upright spins? FAI has inverted spins, and this
should work in the opposite direction. Same goes for the Throttle/Elv mix.
When you reduce throttle to enter the spin, the elv mix that was put in for
downlines might affect your spin approach. And when the spin entry is
inverted you'll have to really get on the down elv to maintain level
approach. I guess it can work, but it seems like its introducing factors
that make the pilot begin to fly against the mix.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Lance, incidence may take care of pitch or roll,
but not always. In fact, I found that changing wing
(panel) incidence has the most dramatic impact on slow flight, such as
entries to a spin. CG and wing balance also play some part in this
mix. The electronic mixing takes care of what incidence changes, (wing
warping, etc.) will not address in a down line, or, if you choose to just
electronically dial out the tendency.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Don,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't understand the throttle to
elevator/aileron mix issue. I've not seen this as a way of correcting
things. I would assume the T/E mix is to reduce tuck to the belly or
canopy, but I'm used to using wing incidence for this. If the plane
rolls on downlines then we are usually dealing with a twist in the
wings/stab or both. </FONT></DIV>
