Should we teach - or demonstrate - stalling? spinning? single engine go arounds? PFL's? crosswind landings? unusual attitude recoveries during limited panel instrument flying....they all have inherent dangers if you screw them up.

A lot of the things we demonstrate are to show why you shouldn't do it.

Just simple stalling, for example - we don't teach you to DO it, we teach you what to do if it happens!!
