Increase back pressure to keep altitude to reach stall. If you do this too gentle, it will not stall because the airflow over the elevator is too slow to create enough tail down force to cause stall.

Recovery

  1. Release back pressure.

    2. You don’t need to push nose down too steep.

  2. Throttle-Full, Maintain level flight attitude.
    3.

    Don’t look inside the cockpit. Your right hand is already on the throttle. Just move it forward. Look horizon and cowling. Adjust control pressure to establish level flight attitude.
