Pretty cool. I see what you mean in the 3rd video. The attitude indicator is really not tracking. Also interesting to watch the instructor's hands. I'm guessing he was providing less and less correction for you each time because in the third try it looked like he hardly touched his controls.
in the spin, the plane is stalled, the ASI will read less than the stall speed, which is 42kias. often the ASI will read almost zero. you can hear the stall horn in the video, from the point the instructor stalls the plane just prior to the incipiant spin, all the way through until the stall breaks.
once the stall breaks, and you're into the dive, the ASI increases rapidly. in no time at all, the plane is traveling at some 140 to 150kias. you can hear the wind rush in the video. the Vne is 164kias.
as the plane comes out of the dive, because it is nose up again, the speed is lost as altitude is regained, and it is not until the airspeed drops below 100kias that the engines are powered back up to full. the plane then climbs at Vy until the original altitude is restored.
more spins, this time in CFRIZcanadian_wormMay 17 2010, 20:06:48 UTC
I'm doing a "check on type" on the DA20 with G500, so again, it seems I must do spins. So, why not film them. These were insipiant spins, not fully developed as above.

the last spin is more like flipping over into an inverted dive. Or at least it felt that way.
