windshear escape must be predicated on KISS

(kiss: keep it simple stupid).

IF you want to get fancy and go against KISS, you could turn off the bleeds and generators and get more thrust from the engine. Not many of us could do that while trying to fly the plane, so KISS.

An overspeed, but otherwise successful windshear escape maneuver, is a success. But certainly, once clear of windshear, clean up and throttle back.
