4.20 Special Procedure: Slow Speed Sink and Recovery
 Reduce power to idle and let speed decrease by gently using aft control stick
 Maintain enough forward speed for sufficient rudder effectivity
 Rudder will regain effectivity quickly as soon as airspeed or propeller thrust is
increased
 To recover, let nose drop slightly below the horizon and build-up air speed while
adding power at the same time
