Standard Stall Recovery:

Note that the following Safety Notice is for all GA pilots and all aeroplane instructors and examiners:

SRG2128 and Standards Document 19(A) state the types of stall to be expected in the PPL Skills Test:

Recognition and recovery from stalls. A stall in the clean configuration, as detailed below, and at least 2 other stalls from the following series of stalls will be required and the examiner will brief the sequence of these both pre-flight and in the air:

* Stall in clean configuration, fully developed stall entering from straight and level flight, with the throttle(s) closed. The Examiner will nominate when the recovery should begin.

* Approach to stall from an approach configuration, with approach flap setting, gear down and low power. The stall should be initiated from a turn (level or slightly descending with between 10 and 30° AOB) and the applicant must recover at the first symptom of the approaching stall.

* Approach to stall in the landing configuration with full flap, gear down, and low power. The stall should be initiated from straight flight as if established on final approach to land (i.e. not climbing); the applicant must recover at
the first symptom of the approaching stall.

* Approach to stall in a climbing turn with take-off flap and climb power (single-engine aeroplane only) the applicant must recover at the first symptom of the approaching stall.

All recoveries shall be made with the minimum loss of height and returning to a clean climb configuration at VY maintaining directional control.
(The examiner may nominate a heading to be achieved after recovery).
I know it's easy for us to say, but as examiners we really want you to succeed so most of all, relax and complete the exercise as you have been taught.
