Select an entry altitude that allows the Task to be completed no lower than 3,000 feet above ground level (AGL).

Bottom line

The pilot should select an entry altitude that allows the accelerated stall maneuver to be completed no lower than 3,000 feet AGL. An accelerated approach to stall should be performed with a bank of approximately 45 degrees. Once a stall warning occurs, recover promptly by reducing the AOA until the stall warning stops.
