siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (Fear) - requested by garmachi.
GeeSussFreeKsays...O wow, great find. Pulled it out at 2kish feet at over speed. Inches from death really. Not sure what sent them into the spin in the first place. He is well above stall speed which is around 50ish knots. He only had about 2-3 seconds left before he couldn't pull out of that, well done.
Offsajdhsays...Neato! Is there a transcript over the discussion between the pilot in training and instructor anywhere?
quantumushroomsays...Pilot-in-Training: Oh no! And Carnivale is next week!
Defecating-in-Terror Instructor: Switching to auxiliary pants! Pull up on the stick-thingy!

brunopuntzjonessays...FWIW on the tags, the Turcano is a prop plane, not a jet
Edit: Just watched again, wow pushing +8.0g and -2.5g and over 375kts at parts, well beyond the specs for that airframe. Hope they have good mechanics to check that thing over...
ForgedRealitysays...He went from 10k ft to 2k ft in nothing flat. Wow.

They probably intentionally initiated the spin via full rudder. Opposite rudder stops the spin, but by then, the plane is already in a virtual freefall with almost no forward momentum, so the only way to pull out of it, is to point downward, gain airspeed, and get some lift under the wings.
grintersays...Gooooooooossssee!
