The C172 G1000 POH states that slow deceleration stalls are not considered aerobatic (excluding whip stalls). Refer section 2 of POH.

The recovery by 3000ft is an arbitary figure that is unneccessarily linked to aerobatics practice and carried through by generations of Instructors.

I've seen Ops manuals that approve straight and level stall practice below 3000ft with CFI approval.

I'm not aware of any CASA height rule regarding straight and level stalls, only aeros.
