Bloggs,
I think you ( and many others) would be rather appalled at what is required by YSBK CASA office FOI's, in recent times, highly experienced pilots have been failed on base checks for ANY decrease in attitude during stall and recovery. "Powering" out of the stall with zero loss of height has been "informally" adopted as the "standard".

Indeed, one FOI was "demanding" that the stall/attitude warning/stick pusher system in a Metro be deactivated and the aircraft pulled into a "proper" stall ---- only a very very strongly worded letter from the Type Certificate holder dissuaded them/him from the practice.

Maybe some of these "CASA experts" would benefit from a course with UK CAA at Redhill.

Tootle pip!!
