At Va, it would take a full, instaneous deflection of the controls to
stall the aircraft. How is that un-necessarily close to stall?


A gust of sufficient value will also stall the a/c at Va.

Whicih is why it is recommended to fly at Va in turbulent conditions.


With the FAA saying that Vb is the speed for maximum gust intensity,
who do find suggesting otherwise.

2) incidently because it is conservatively lower than Vb and therefore
well within any expected maximum gust.


This is true, but also closer to a stall

I sense this is going to be a long one...


Just post the documentation. :-)

How about you post an example of an airplane with a published Vb that is the
same as Vmo (or Vno)?
