Re: Can someone tranlste please?

Due to handling mistake the a/c went into a spin.

is correct, happens when the a/c nose is up (because of low speed) and the left or right wing looses lift and moves down.

Recovery by controls neutral and push rudder to the opposite side-but you need altitude for this!

When this happens at low altitude during approach, it is deadly. We German pilots called this "abschmieren", wellknown to flyers all over the world!
