I'm a low hours PPL, so would appreciate an explanation to that!
I understand why the "taught" methods may be rubbished by a more experienced pilot - my understanding is these methods/guidelines are put in place to deter the student pilot being too "gung-ho" and doing something dangerous?!
Getting a little off-topic I guess but as an inexperienced pilot the moment I heard that stall warning, I'd be lowering the nose, reducing the angle of bank and applying power.
