Go Ballistic - Not just for Top Gun, Part III of IV in Series Stall, Spin and Upset Recovery

Unusual attitude training begins with the prime directive, the first fundamental, job number one of piloting an airplane – Do not make the airplane stall. Stall recognition, stall recovery and stall avoidance is the commonality of upset and spin recovery. In this four part series, Jim Alsip Master CFI-Aerobatic presents the basics of airmanship and how to recover unusual attitudes. Part I deals with stalls; In Part II, a top rudder maneuver recovers nose low attitudes; going ballistic is the theme of Part III and everything comes together in the final Part IV – spin recovery.
This series should be watched in order 1 – 4.

When faced with a nose high unusual attitude, you should go ballistic with a zero g maneuver to avoid a stall/spin incident. Learn from this video and then try it. Going ballistic over the top is a hoot and an a must have skill for every pilot.
