Airplane Stalls - KING SCHOOLS Video

An excerpt from King Schools' "Taming Stalls & Spins" course. Click here to purchase http://tinyurl.com/dxvkb8l

In this clip, John King explains how and why an airplane stalls.

In KINGS Taking Stalls and Spins course, you'll quickly learn what causes a stall ... how it can transition to a spin ... how to instantly recognize & avoid situations that might result in loss of control ... & steps to take in the event you find yourself in a stalled condition. Dramatic in-flight video compellingly demonstrates the aerodynamics of stalls & spins during everyday flight. Understanding the nature of stalls and spins before you get in the cockpit makes it easier to recognize when you need to take action when you're in actual flight. A "must" for every pilot—regardless of your experience.

[LTF85199]

for a given constant speed you should add.

[emmanuelmaggiori]

What about speed and air density?

[yoyaya007]

@LTF85199no he doesn t have to ad that in engineering the angle of attack is more significant, never say for a constant speed (stall is not related directly to speed)

[zeroMPUA]

@LTF85199 Perhaps, you wanted to say for given similaruty parameters, as Mach number, Reynolds number, Struchal number, etc.

@hen555 in FSX try pulling back ALL THE WAY at once, it will stall fast and not climb at all (pretty much), that's because you hit that angle of attack. And remember, it's a flight simulator... it's not a real plane. Yeesh.

[KarpatycGhost]

@hen555 I think...( just a opinion ) as you raise the nose of the plane and increase the angle of attack the plane also changes the direction of flight and as the plane starts to travel upward as well the relative angle between the air flow and the wing stays within the limit .... unlike in the video where theoretically the wing has increased the angle but still appears to be travelling in the same direction .... I would need to do a diagram of vectors to explain it better ...

[hen555]

but wait... if the speed is fast of the air particles, cant you have a higher angle of attack before stall? I mean in my testing on FSX, I can make an airplane almost vertical and still gain altitude until the speed decreases then I stall. My guess would be that although I am at a high angle of attack... there is no lift generated and the propulsion from the engine is giving it altitude...not bernouli's principle. Someone care to explain ?

[Nippon1971]

May I ask you if the 2D or the 3D is more effective in generating lift ?

[thepod24]

@emmanuelmaggiori An airplane can stall at any airspeed and any air density

[sporkninjaa]

@obaidCarkey Absolutely. Then your plane falls out of the sky.

[majfunkmeister]

@obaidCarkey correct, if u increase angle of attack, u will lose airspeed.

[obaidCarkey]

so low speed and high angle of attack is a NO NO?
