- possible, but what is not properly understood is that there is no other roll control available on a fully stalled wing. If 'use of rudder' put you 'on your back' you used it incorrectly. Not quite sure why you were using it "on impending stall"?

As you say, we should never get to the point of 'fully stalled', so aileron usage remains quite practical, but sadly some of our colleagues are managing too. Hopefully the initiatives coming out of the Toronto conference will go a long way to address this.
