Just to confirm that when you 3-point a Chippie (gradually increasing AoA close to the ground until it sinks on gently despite further back stick) the aeroplane is not stalled. It's getting close, hence the sink and the 'no climb with further back stick', but it hasn't reached buffet, let alone departure.
A nose-higher attitude than 3-point is required to achieve that.
Correct. Also the stall is delayed by the enhanced lift deriving from ground effect.
