Care must be exercised during this flight test item to ensure that the candidate does not allow the
aircraft to exceed airspeed or flight load factor limitations. The examiner should enter this manoeuvre
from slow cruise, climbing turns, or from turns during slow flight to provide a greater margin for safety.
Before initiating the spiral dive, the examiner is not to indicate or state the manoeuvre that is about
to be assessed, but simply advise the candidate to return the aircraft to straight and level flight on the
command, “You have control!” Recovery should be completed without excessive airspeed above the minimum height
specified by the manufacturer, or no less then 2,000 feet above ground, whichever is the greater.
