I was in the process of getting my PPL when it changed years ago. When they introduced the ACS they changed slow flight demonstration, it used to he to ride the horn and don't stall. Now it's fly slow but don't hit the horn... I think they should change it back. It's a very important part of flying and probably the most dangerous if you don't know how to control the aircraft during slow flight.

I love practicing slow fight :)

Am a Gold Seal CFI since the '70s and appreciate your clear, "bite size" videos. Well done. Subscribed.

look to Medium for AOA and Power Techniques, and also F-35C Crash into the South China Sea, and An Open Letter light twins spins, and thrust versus power required curves reverse demand not synonymous with reverse command.

Commercial? Maybe. Private? I doubt it. The FAA has signaled multiple times that they even want to remove stalls entirely. There is a large push to actively promote engage and train individuals to prevent stalls. And since the procedure to break an imminent stall and an actual stall are the same, better to develop the muscle memory of prevention.

When I got my PPL it was common to practice deadstick landings, power off and power on stalls and spins. I am still wondering why the FAA lowered the bar.

Thank you

Since stall/spin is a significant component of fatal GA accidents, I am unsure why the Feds went away from the "old" PTS maneuver...
