Sorry KillerBee just trying to "keep it real". If the Phantom is found to be in an uncontrollable spin then the "chute on a string" like I stated is used primarily. That's why it's there. slowing the aircraft on landing was an after-thought to save on rubber and cases of beer
. The speed brakes, flaps and landing gear are to be up and in the wells during spin recovery.
