Just a couple of points I'd like to address from earlier in this thread....

The Airbus Bulletin covering revised stall recovery procedures is the result of recent Airbus stall accidents.
An A320 accident in France and an A310 accident in the Indian Ocean.
As for the notion this bulletin followed this accident, it's rather this accident followed the bulletin. Coincidence? Yes. Face saving for Airbus? No.
This notice is also coincident with a CAA Safety Notice addressing the same issue of stall recovery.

Whilst it's fun to muck about in a sim, any attempt at looking into fully developed stalls and spins is a waste of time as simulator data packages have NO data beyond the g-break. Therefore, what you see isn't necessarily what you will get. Despite the fun.
