A pilot unintentionally enters a steep diving spiral to the left. What is the proper way to recover from this attitude without

overstressing the glider?

A) Apply up-elevator pressure to raise the nose.

B) Apply more up-elevator pressure and then use right aileron pressure to control the overbanking tendency.

C) Relax the back pressure and shallow the bank; then apply up-elevator pressure until the nose has been raised to the

desired position.
