That's true, IF you keep your airspeed up. Something I clearly didn't do!

Which, of course, was why I decided to practice the maneuver in the first
place -- I knew I was getting rusty at emergency procedures...

That's the trouble with owning the plane. Lessons learned can be expensive!
Luckily, it appears that I am able to re-use the plane...

Just means you have to practice more often, which means flying more
often ... bummer, eh? :-)
