This came about before in a previous thread and I C-cked up the explanation then

Obviously putting the aircraft into a stall will increase the AOA until the aircraft reaches the incipient stall.
In the Citation you hold that AOA and go for full thrust!
Any forward movement on the control column will result in a high height loss.
And no! few of the older Citations have stick shakers.
So basically you power out reducing AOA as the aircraft gains speed

I reverted to instinct on one recovery pitching forward while going for full thrust and apart from being told off the height loss was significant compared to the method taught.

I believe the Husky in a flight test was held back in the stall with the control column fully back! The tester went full power in that attitude with the aircraft clawing its way back into flight?
