How should stall recovery be executed?

The correct method for stall recovery involves lowering the nose and adding full power. When an aircraft stalls, it is essentially flying at an angle of attack that exceeds its critical limit, causing a loss of lift. The primary objective in stall recovery is to decrease the angle of attack to restore proper airflow over the wings and regain lift.

Lowering the nose helps to reduce the angle of attack, while applying full power provides additional thrust, which is essential for regaining speed and control. This combination effectively helps the aircraft to recover from the stall.

Trying to increase altitude or turning away from the stall are not appropriate responses in this situation, as they do not directly address the stall condition and could lead to further complications. Similarly, reducing power and leveling off would only exacerbate the stall state, as it does not result in the necessary increase in speed or decrease in angle of attack. Therefore, the recommended recovery procedure is to lower the nose and add full power.
