However, given that most pilots who do not do military training will never see inverted flight in a real airplane, a practiced mantra is better than nothing. Chair-flying the "unload, roll, pull" routine will be as good a fallback position as any, and better than most.

I've taught both air-to-ground and air-to-air tactics, and recovery from all types of stalls and spins. I fully realize that no amount of chair flying or sim training will prepare someone for real, inadvertent, inverted flight (whether a stall or wake turbulence or something else). Ideally, those pilots will go out and pay for some acrobatic and spin training just for the experience...
