Unusual attitude recovery advice sought

My thoughts are to take care of flying in the following order:

1. airspeed - increasing... pull back on the throttle; decreasing...
push in on the throttle

2. pitch attitude - nose down... pull back on the yoke/stick; nose up...
push forward on the yoke/stick

3. roll attitude - roll left/right to wings level

There are a few different ways that advice could kill you.

What you do about pitching should depend more on airspeed than on
attitude. A stall can occur even if you're pitching down, so your
advice to pull the nose up if it's down can be just the opposite of
what you need to do. Instead, you should pitch down (and advance the
throttle) if your airspeed is too low (but first, check your rate-of-
turn or heading indicator to see if you're in a spin; if so, recover
according to the procedure in your plane's POH).

If your airspeed is too high, DON'T pitch up before checking your bank
angle. If you're in a high-speed spiral dive and you apply back
elevator, you could worsen the spiral and overstress the airplane.
Instead, roll level first (and put the throttle to idle), and see what
happens. If the plane pitches up sharply--which can happen because
you're now at high speed with abruptly less load factor--then you may
not need to apply back elevator at all, and indeed may even need some
forward pressure to prevent too steep an upward pitch.
