Why not to be practiced?
FCL.745.A says:
(2) training in techniques to recover from:
(i) nose high at various bank angles;
(ii) nose low at various bank angles;
but what "various" means is not specified. I think any ATO using an aerobatic aircraft would include bank angles beyond 90 deg. The whole point is to train the counter intuitive "unload" response required, rather than the more intuitive split s pull.
(c) In order to increase the applicant’s resilience related to the handling of aeroplane upsets, the advanced UPRT course needs to include the development of confidence and competence in recognising and recovering safely from upsets under the presence of the real human factors. Such confidence building is specifically addressed by:
(i) successfully overcoming natural stress response (startle and surprise); and
(ii)
performing critically important counter-intuitive actions.
Advanced UPRT therefore considers pitch attitudes, bank angles, AOA/airspeeds, sideslip and g-loads, none of which are normally experienced during routine operations.
