Spin Recovery; Spiral Dive Recovery; Recovery From Unintentional Cloud Flying - DG Flugzeugbau DG-1000 Flight Manual

3.5 Spin Recovery

Apply full opposite rudder against direction of the spin, pause.
Then ease stick forward until the rotation ceases, centralize the controls and
carefully pull out of the dive.
The ailerons should be kept neutral during recovery.
Caution: To prevent unintentional spinning do not stall the motorglider. Fly
with enough speed reserve especially in gusty conditions and in the landing
pattern.
Intentional spins with waterballast are not permitted.
Height loss during recovery
max. speed during recovery

3.6 Spiral dive recovery

Apply rudder and aileron in opposite direction and carefully pull out of the dive.
Spiral dive occurs only when spinning more than 2 turns with medium C.G.
positions, see section 4.5.11.
To prevent spiral dives intentional spinning should only be executed at aft C.G.
positions.
Recovery from unintentional spinning should be done immediately.

3.7 Recovery from unintentional cloud flying

Spins are not to be used to reduce altitude. In an emergency, pull out the dive
brakes fully before exceeding a speed of 200 km/h and fly with max. 200 km/h
(108 kts.) until leaving the cloud.
At higher speeds up to V
high aerodynamic and g-loads.
