3. Ease, repeat ease, out of the resulting dive or climb

While going through these steps it is common sense to close the throttle if the nose is low and add power if the nose is high.

Clearly the presence of the ground could require the pullout to be firmer but no more than to the edge of the buffet.

While rudder use is not prohibited in this situation in the 777, it has capital bold letters following an asterisk stating "WARNING: EXCESSIVE USE OF PITCH TRIM OR RUDDER MAY AGGRAVATE AN UPSET SITUATION OR MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL AND/OR HIGH STRUCTURAL LOADS". This is not the only type that Boeing has this statement for.

The 777 also says for a nose-high recovery to "reduce thrust".
