Stalling in an Airliner
As a humble line pilot, no one has ever trained me to get my current (or any of my six previous) type (s), out of a stall.
On the other hand, on my FIRST type, it was hammered into me and subsequently reinforced by full spin training.
I see a few stall/ spin events recently ( Turkish, Colgan, maybe AF447)
Why not train fully developed stall in the sim?.....at least.
Can't be that expensive surely?
Well, at least compared to the Turkish, Colgan maybe AF447 accidents. What did they cost?
Frankly, if I continue at the rate I'm going, I'll soon no longer be able to fly an aeroplane without an autopilot.
Will I still be a pilot?
