Recognize and recover at the first indication of loss of directional control, stall warning, or buffet.
Bottom line
The moment the pilot first recognizes the uncontrollable yaw, or experiences any symptom associated with a stall, the pilot simultaneously retards the throttle for the operating engine to stop the yaw and lowers the pitch attitude to regain speed. Immediate full application of power in a stalled condition has an associated risk due to the possibility of asymmetric thrust.
