It is a general rule
that professional pilots learning to fly a large aircraft to obtain a type
rating and fly hundreds of passengers do not have to conduct a stall or
spin. My guess is it has been deemed to be to risky and one is trained to
avoid them. Therefore, I think it is fair to say that one doesn't
need to stall or spin every airplane he or she flies to be fully
qualified to operate it safely.
In my opinion
it makes sense for pilots to practice their stall and spin procedures
in docile airplanes that present the little or no risk and avoid them in planes
where they are not quite sure what will happen. Unless of course, one has
a thrill issue.
