To stall, I try to keep my altitude while the engine is put idle. 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 !
