Thanks for the explanation. That last paragraph is a little scary, though. If I'm in a spin to the right and I give right aileron the spin will worsen. You say that sometimes in a spin to the right and give left aileron the spin will worsen. That doesn't give me anymore options with ailerons.
I guess the best thing is to avoid spins unless I have plenty of altitude and a good, clear view of the plane.

Thanks
