  2. Spin (aerodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_(aerodynamics)

    A pilot can induce a flat spin once the spin is established by applying full opposite aileron to the direction of rotation—hence, the requirement to neutralize ailerons in the normal spin recovery technique. The aileron application creates a differential induced drag that raises the nose toward a level pitch attitude.

  3. Aerobatic maneuver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerobatic_maneuver

    A spin is more complex, involving intentionally stalling a single wing, causing the plane to descend spiraling around its yaw axis in a corkscrew motion. A hammerhead (also known as a stall turn ) is performed by pulling the aircraft up until it is pointing straight up (much like the beginning of a loop), but the pilot continues to fly straight ...

  4. 3D Aerobatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_Aerobatics

    Flat spin A spin induced with full up elevator, full rudder, and full aileron. Once the spin is initiated you will level the ailerons and increase engine speed a bit to pull the aircraft around. This will in turn flatten the spin. Inverted Flat spin The same as the above but inverted. Inverted flat spins are easier to control, but can be hard ...

    The British pilot F. P. Raynham had already made a successful recovery from a spin, but the event was unobserved. [ 9 ] In spite of the discovery of "Parke's technique," also known as the "Parke Dive", [ 10 ] pilots were not taught spin-recovery procedures until the beginning of World War I.

  6. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(fluid_dynamics)

    The only dangerous aspect of a stall is a lack of altitude for recovery. Incipient spin & recovery. A special form of asymmetric stall in which the aircraft also rotates about its yaw axis is called a spin. A spin can occur if an aircraft is stalled and there is an asymmetric yawing moment applied to it. [17]

  7. Spin (b-boy move) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_(b-boy_move)

    Stabbed windmills transitioning into a back spin. A spin is a b-boying move that involves rotation of the breaker's body about some axis in contact with the ground. It is possible to perform a spin on virtually any part of the body, but bare skin often causes painful and spin-killing friction with the floor. To solve this problem, many breakers ...

  8. Inversion recovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_recovery

    Inversion recovery is a magnetic resonance imaging sequence that provides high contrast between tissue and lesion. It can be used to provide high T1 weighted image, high T2 weighted image, and to suppress the signals from fat , blood , or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

  9. Flat spin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flat_spin

    Flat spin may refer to: Flat spin (aviation), spinning motion by a fixed-wing aircraft with angle of attack of 65 degrees or more; Flat spin (roller coaster element), a term used to describe a tight corkscrew element of a roller coaster; Flat spin, a skateboarding slide maneuver; Flat spin, a freeskiing jump trick; Flat Spin, a Thoroughbred ...
