As far as I can make out these are discussion documents for interested parties including the FAA.
in the documents it acknowledges the differences of effect on AOA between adding thrust on jet aircraft with engines above and below the wing.
Adding full thrust with engines high above the wing causes a reduction in AOA.
The Citation is such an aircraft as are many heavier jets.
Mad Jock implies that stalls do not occur in stabilised approaches I presume from that he considers them to only be in the areas of takeoff and cruise??
I can assure you that a postive push forward as may be used in a light piston aircraft would result in a large loss of height in the Citation.
a steady reduction will result in minimal height loss with full application of thrust.
How you can be so demeaning of examiners who have spent all their lives in the industry just because they happen to be FAA Looses me! One spent 10 years with the FAA accident investigation.
Would I make a positive push down in a low level stall in the Citation??? Hmmm I will take some convincing!
Different horses for different courses springs to mind as does different techniques for different aircraft.
