He wasn't misinformed necessarily. EASA is generally stricter than the FAA, and has not certified the DA20 for spins. So in Europeland it is not permitted.

Most of them are however mine is not because something has to do with your feet getting stuck in between the rudder peddles you can still do spins but its not legal but like i said most DA20s have had this problem fixed its only the older ones

In response to nowayoutstp4, that is true that the DA 20-CI is not always certified for spins when it's equiped with the 'Altitude compensating fuel system'. With that system, it's not only limited to spins but also for stalls (except whip stalls) and intentional side slips.

You may be right, however, I have not looked into any type other than the one I trained on and it was definitely chosen, purchased, and delivered as certified for spins for the purpose of flight training. This video was meant to be fun not a knowledge contest.

I did my PPL on the DA 20 and as far as I remember it wasn't certified for spinning. Has something changed?

Nothing has changed, you were just misinformed. The State University sponsored, FAA approved, Part 141 Certified Flight Instructor course I completed has been using DA-20's for spin training for years, as seen in the video.
In the DA-20 spins are approved.
