There's only one certificate in the FAA line up that requires actually spinning an aircraft. In that sense the Cirrus makes a perfectly acceptable trainer. See

- mikeash 10y agoI'm not thinking of deliberate spins, but rather that it seems like students might spin by accident from time to time, and it would be good if that didn't automatically total the aircraft.
- bronco21016 10y agoI've obviously never attempted to intentionally spin a Cirrus but in my experience and in talking with many other instructors in the aircraft it's nearly impossible to get the aircraft to enter a spin. The stall characteristics of the split chord wing make it difficult to even fully stall the aircraft.
