Narrative:According to the pilot, the aircraft was on approach ILS 23L at an altitude of between 6,000 and 5,000 feet. The localiser intercept was unsuccessful due to a pilot error in operating the GNS 430. At the moment the error was corrected, the aircraft rolled to the right and reached a large bank angle. At the same time, the nose of the aircraft descended almost vertically. The rate of descent was greater than 2,000 ft/min, the indicated airspeed greater than 200 knots. From the intercept manoeuvre, the aircraft entered a steep climb and a stall occurred. At approximately 3,000 feet, the pilot was able to regain a normal flight attitude. The subsequent landing was uneventful.
