In type rating Stall training exercises have been changed by Airbus. Low altitude stall is done at 3700ft with flaps2 and high level is done at FL350. Both are done during a turn. Stall occurs around 12/13 degrees (less if in a turn) the nose should be allowed to drop to zero degrees pitch and held there, wings leveled as speed builds up. Move thrust levers smoothly to CLB. If the thrust is idle it takes almost 5 seconds to build up so that is the time pitch up ocurrs and not before.You should be aware that the pitch up is pronounced if the gear is down (direct law), not a problem in alternate law (gear up) as computers resist the pitch up. Problems are initially nose is pushed too much and later when thrust builds up there is no forward pressure that leads to secondary stall. Important thing is to lower the nose first and no thrust till out of stall. That is the essence of the new look at the recoveary procedure.
