Rainboe . . .

I was practising 737 stalls in November. It is very very hard and takes tremendous stick force to hold a 737 right into a stall. You cannot maintain altitude and it takes diabolical pressure to keep the nose up. Near the stall with buffet occuring, a high ROD regime naturally occurs. The warnings, tactile, sensual and visual are manifest. You cannot do this inadvertently, not on a straight descent!
Be mindful of the fact that the non aviation crowd would not presume that you're doing this . . . in the simulator! And besides that, be careful with those exact comparisons as no 6-axis sim has true fidelity, especially not with the "sensual and visual" parts, with emphasis on inertia.
