Quote from Smilin_Ed:
When practicing stalls, student pilots are warned NOT to trim into the stall. That is so when they let go of the stick, the airplane will return to a trimmed speed which is BELOW the stall speed. Further, if you trim into the stall, the trim might not move fast enough to get you out when you need it to.

In case DW and others get confused: think you meant to say "ABOVE the stall speed"? (That is, nose below it...)

Now, can I go back to sleep?
