C172 instructor pilot reports drifting into san class B airspace during upset recovery training due ...

Narrative:

During a flight of upset recovery training; done between 9;000 and 10;000 ft; a lot of time was used to clear the area of traffic below. Due to high winds aloft from around 340 degrees; estimated at around 25 to 35 KTS and after we practiced a spin recovery where we lost around 2;000 ft we drifted inside class B airspace (B airspace starts at 6;800 until 10;000 in this area). According to the GPS we were around 0.5 NM inside the B airspace. It was discovered by me as instructor when our position relative to crq was around 4 NM and ssw. A corrective measure was immediately taken to go below the airspace and north of it. After we were done with upset recovery training an IFR request was made for VOR-a practice approach at okb and localizer-D at see. During these contacts with ATC no comments were made regarding this violation.
