So I should see an increase of the AoA while pulling the stick before the stall and then a decrease to a negative number. Now in real life I would release the stick and push the throttle to recover 300ft lower. With the JSBsim model, I don't see the decrease of AoA at stall. Instead, the plane keeps it AoA with the stick completely pulled. It do not swivel aroung its CG like a real plane !
