I was going to keep out of this one, because I knew it would turn into a pxxxxxg contest, but I can't help but chip in and say that I am entirely with MJ and JT on this.

Guys. Please stop telling people (especially students) that they should 'pick up the downgoing wing with the rudder', during and beyond the stall.

The rudder should be used to prevent further yaw, whilst, at the same time, stopping the wing drop by un-stalling the wings.

Then, after you have un-stalled the wings, level the wings with co-ordinated use of aileron and rudder!
