Now I got a chance to do it in the aircraft during training (not enough sim time) so in the middle of the night over Waco at 14000 I slowed it down to the shaker and unlike the sim the pusher fired off pretty easily. And fired off is the best way to describe that thing. Neat to see.
Now I'm glad I did military pilot training where we took a twin engine jet out into an area and tried to kill ourselves in so many ways. So much different when you actually feel the airplane stall versus in a box simulating it.
