I ended up with about 2000 on the Gazelle, and IIRC we did the 'Dive to Destruction (VNE) and Jack Stall' quite often. We also did it in a turn to the left I think because the aircraft rolled hard right (or the other way around !) In fact I do recall that this manoeuvre was banned after an inexperienced pilot went off to do part of the flight test schedule which called for jack stall and had to recover from 'an inverted position' !

It also reminds me of sending off solo students in the Firefly: 'My aerobatics were poor, Sir, but my spin recoveries were spotless' !
