Recovery from the stall will be completed at the height recommended by the manufacturer or no less than 2,000 feet above ground level whichever is greater. The examiner must be aware of the manufacturer's recommendation in this regard for the type of aeroplane to be used on the flight test. Examiners should avoid the tendency to assess candidates on the classic stall only. To ensure that comprehensive training in the stalling exercise is being carried out, and to avoid being predictable, it is recommended that the requested stall item differ from candidate to candidate. The stall may be entered from one of various flight conditions, for example; slow flight, a climbing or descending turn, or a simulated overshoot from a full flap approach to a landing. Overcorrection, negative loading and excessive nose-down pitch attitudes are unacceptable. During power-on stalls, some wing drop is acceptable but acceptable control of yaw is required. Attempts to control wing drop and yaw by using abrupt and full aileron deflection is unacceptable.
