In the past, PPRuNe has seen numerous discussions on pilot technique to be used if a wing should drop at the point of stall. The expression "pick up the wing with rudder" is frequently used in this context and there is little doubt many instructors teach students to skid the wings level before applying aileron. This is of course faulty technique and has the potential to cause an incipient spin in the direction to the dropped wing. Nevertheless the technique is almost universally taught at flying schools.
Pig's Arse. Not at my school. If this practice is so prevalent, why aren't CFI's and FE's picking it up in S&P's or renewals? Please remember a vocal minority of ill advised PPrune contributors are not the practical majority.
