Stall recovering

CC The B-2 is not a conventional aircraft ... I have not flown that type and have no knowledge of its control regime.

For stall recovery in a conventional aircraft you need the tail plane flying first. i.e. elevator authority. If you get the main plane flying first you are going back in the stall ... stalls and flaps don't go well together.

Edit: Failed ditching, stall, spin, VNE+ dive; it's all academic. What caused the upset?
