On the subject...

I've practiced this at a safe altitude, similar to a departure stall.

In departure configuration:
1.) Slow to rotation speed
2.) Apply full power
3.) While climbing @ Vx (full power + proper AOA to create a Vx
airspeed), pull the throttle
4.) Recover

Considering the swift and positive actions that need to happen (and I
know it's coming!), I imagine that one of his students will kill both
of them someday, if he is in fact doing this @ 50 feet.

Not to mention, at a safe altitude I'm not at all worried about ground
track, as I would be at 50 feet.


He might not even be an instructor, but if he is, after posting through
these "exchanges" he's had with myself and others dealing with his "CFI
philosophy", I'd like to think that all the gruff dialog aside, he's learned
something even though he doesn't admit it.
Actually, I learned a long time ago in the aviation business that it's not
admitting you learned something that matters, it's the LEARNING that
matters.
Perhaps something has been gained......but who knows really. It's Usenet
after all :-))
