Is there a model in FS that can be spun?

Some planes spin more easily than others and, of these, a C172 is not one - very docile.

Hi all,

Regarding the 'snap' I have had to deliberatley do it in training many years ago in a glider.

For those who want to know what happens I'll try and explain but basically it happens because right rudder for example is used on a steep bank to the left or vica versa.

Think about it: guess many have seen aircraft doing stunts with 90deg of bank and staying level height: the tailplane and rudder have become a small wing giving some lift, the rest is taken care of just with lots of power ( sorry I digress).

Ok, you have steep bank turn and you kick in opposite Rudder, (because of the bank the tail plane and rudder have become partial tail wing and rudder and you have reduced lift), the tail goes down, you lower wing accelerates, gives you more lift than your higher wing which has now retarded and you flip over, completely in the opposite direction to that you was turning- not good thing if you wasn't expecting it and a no no to do at low altitude.

Whether it works in fs9 etc I don't know - yet:)
