Yup - and we don't make them actually roll the aircraft over to prove that dynamic rollover exists either.

It used to be taught very many moons ago ( I think the last to give it up were the Navy on the Sea King course)

You only need to know how not to get into it, what the incipient stage symptoms are and how to recover from that.

Lots of guys claim to teach fully developed VRS but frankly I don't believe it.
