Fundamentals of stall recovery.
Fundamentals of stall recovery.
Bottom line
Following a reduction in the AOA and the stall warning being eliminated, the wings should be rolled level and power added as needed.
Key numbers
| Number | What it means |
|---|---|
| Commercial ACS completion: at least 1,500 feet AGL (ASEL/ASES) or 3,000 feet AGL (AMEL/AMES); use higher AFM/POH recommendations | ACS completion altitude |
| PHAK conditional cruise/design-maneuvering-speed recovery example: 2 or 2.5 Gs; use the aircraft’s approved limits | Illustrative load factor |
| Commercial ACS CA.VII.C.S4: no less than 65 percent power; distinguish the conditional AFH multiengine practice example | ACS power criterion |
| Commercial ACS CA.VII.C.S6: specified bank not exceeding 20°; AFH multiengine power-on example also uses up to 20° | Power-on bank |
