The answer is again simple and goes to recognition.
A stall with wing drop is just that and provided action
is taken to solve that problem, unstall the wing, the
a spin will be prevented. A spin is the result of failure
at the first step for whatever reason. Everyone properly
trained will know the difference.


OK, so how would you described the difference. How far does the wing
have to drop before /you/ use spin recovery rather than stall
recovery? I'm genuinely interested: it's not supposed to be a trick
question in any way.

What do we think about picking up the wing with rudder when in a stall with
wing drop? It's not the BGA method and I'm troubled by someone who
recommends it.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Say, right wing drops in a
stall so this "method" would advocate kicking in left rudder as you move
the stick forwards to alleviate the stall?

Personally, the last thing I'd do when the aircraft was in a stalled
state, whether or not a wing drop was involved, would be to
intentionally use the rudder in an uncoordinated fashion. That is,
unless I actually wanted to spin.
