Fundamentals of stall recovery.
Bottom line
Stall training includes proper application of the stall recovery procedure. Stall training includes recognizing when the flight condition has transitioned from the prevention phase into the recovery phase. A stall recovery made by diving only to cruising or design maneuvering airspeed, with a gradual pull up as soon as airspeed is safely above stalling, can be effected with a load factor not to exceed 2 or 2.5 Gs.
