SAFETY FIRST issue 11 Jan 2011 page 8

Under STALL WARNING and STALL

A340-600 " performing a low altitude level flight deceleration at idle until SW is triggered and then push the THR levers to TOGA...

The thrust actually reaches TOGA (20 seconds later), the aircraft stalls ... "

Others may know whether this information is helpful - or relevant.

I had a new Captain nearly do this unintentionally with a very empty Britannia freighter, where the time would have been less but still seemed an age. It was night time... I learned from that example... I didn't copy !
