OK, good to know. I was going to do sim training next time around, but didn't hear great things from another forum member here who went to SimCom in the Commander sim. Still, probably a useful experience just for trying some of these scenarios.

I have had crummy experiences at simulator facilities. BUT I try to remind myself, if I pick up just one important thing at each training event, no matter how crummy the rest of the training may have been, the entire experience was worth it.

Not a fingertip airplane lol.

Unless you've never flown actual fingertip airplanes.

At 1:40 you recovered from the stall with spoiler. Is there something about the MU2 and spoilers that prevent a spin? That recovery in a Beech could put you on your head.

Thanks for the vid.

Spoilers have no adverse yaw and do not increase lift on a wing. So spoiler deflection won't stall a wing. Spoilers also remain effective all the way into deep stall. Ailerons end up being in the turbulent and sometimes reverse flowing air in a stall where they lose effectiveness.

Note the tufts going backwards in this video.

For all its complexities there are matching simplicities and benefits.

Cool airplane.

What Mike said. It's amazing how much control the spoilers enable in the stall. I find it amusing that people often talk about the spoilers as a 'problem' with the mu2 when they are one of its best features.
