PT6 - yes, that wording is better.

"The dash8 400 has powered controls and is not a candidate for tail stalls (according to the guys who make it)" is of course a two-part statement - powered elevators do not prevent tailplane stalls, they merely change the symptoms- I believe it is the tailplane design plus boots) that renders the D8 'immune'.
