Ribbon

That ribbon outside cocpit window would do the job better than any digital instrument to indicate direction of air compared to the plane.

Also:

What would be the difference, if any -aerodynamically - between a "deep stall" and a "flat spin". Correct me if I'm wrong; but wings and stabilizers are completely stalled. You have little if any elevator authority. Increasing throttle will push the nose up increasing the AoA further. No ailron authority. I guess the difference is in the rotation.

So: How to get out of it?
