Quite right! It wouldn't be a level, balanced 60 deg AoB turn at 1.01G!

The "It'll stall at any speed" demo (as Dan says) which we used to do on the Bulldog was very useful in pointing out that AoA, not speed, causes the stall. Dive to about 110 KIAS, pull up on the pre-stall buffet to about 60 deg nose up, then push over the top at zero G and the IAS off the bottom of the ASI, show that it was still flying unstalled. But it could be a bit of a honk-making demo!
