Compressor Stall has an obvious point, one that many people overlook, or have not had it impressed upon them strongly enough. There is a lot of 'voodoo' methods used with regard to this event such as 'gear up-go, gear down - no go' which is nonsense, really.

Doesn't matter if the gear is up or down, if it ain't at blue line (or above) there is little chance to accelerate to Vyse (unless there is room to descend and accelerate.

If it's not happenin' at blue line, it's not going to happen - period. (in bugsmahers, anyway)
