We were taking about stalling on departure not an extra mid airshow. And it could very well be that the hot ship which has an airspeed of 0 isn't actually stalled, even though she is hanging in the air.

I know what you mean but this is a private pilots forum and as such with low time pilots we should discuss in full.

We talk about Jets as if they are somehow different to other aircraft.
The Airliner which ran out of fuel, all engines stopped glided onto a disused airfield the same with the 777 at Heathrow.

Something produced enough airflow for them to fly?

Had the Airline Gliding to the disused airfield decided to try and fly level it would have eventually stalled.
Would AOA on its own make it fly again where would it have got airflow enough to make the wing fly from?

This is getting silly and point scoring.

I am sure at my next renewal which will probably be in a sim feb next year I will be brought up to date.
