Super-stall

RE: Machinbird #493

Perhaps two additional sentences from the section "The super-stall" in D.P.Davies' book will help to put the whole thing into perspective:

"Recovery from a super-stall should not really have a place in this book since the book is written for airline pilots who have every right to say that they have no interest in an aeroplane which can achieve a super-stalled condition."

and two pages later:

"It must be emphasised that we are still in the rather academic field because an aeroplane capable of super-stalling would not, of course, be certificated without adequate protection".

Regards,
