It seems so... I don't recall any massive wing drops on my initial training. Recurrencies in Canada are only approaches to stall and recoveries.
The Basler have a weird aerodynamic characteristic of its own though....You can literally lock your rudder in full deflection during a sideslip, mainly due to the airflow around its square cowlings. I was warned about it but it still felt strange pushing one pedal to its stop, removing my feet and not seeing that coming back neutral (while still holding the ailerons to counteract)
This aerodynamic oddity is easy to break.
Not sure why the FAA let that slip during its certification.
I think Pilot DAR flew the type and may have some input to that.
