Default Hanger 9 Fairchild PT 19 Experience ?

One more thing...I haven't spun mine yet as I had a friend that wanted me to fly his (actually I test fly all his planes) PT-19 after I expressed interest in getting one myself, I had flown it one flight and said "cool" have to get me one...well, he convinced me to fly it again and I couldn't resist on trying a little bit of basic aerobatics. Make a long story short...my first PT-19 was replacing his after I could not get it out of a standard all-purpose spin! I will said it was a pretty 17 or 18 turn spin right down to the ground! I started flying full scale aerobatics about 25 years ago and I did everything but throw the transmitter across the field to get it to come out of that spin! Now I'm chicken to try to spin mine even though I know how mine is balanced and I'm sure it will come out just fine!
