Default RE: Ed Kazmurski's Taurus

Lots of talk about the spin I flew a Taurus for many years in competition and never had a problem with the spin or the snap, as a matter of fact you have to be careful when doing snaps the stab has very little gluing area and I blew the tail right off mine, you had to see what happen next, the whole tail was hanging on by the rudder clevis, the old Taurus just weather viened and I cut the power and she came down like a heilcopter, put the tail back on that night and was flying the next day, unreal plane. If it won't spin move the CG back until it does, one other thing with the CG back a little it will land just about hands off, if you are brave enough it will land hands off but thats another story.
