During your flight training you will practice stalling the airplane to help learn the low-speed handling characteristics of the airplane, and how to recover if an unintentional stall occurs. In this video tip we’ll look at how the airflow changes over the wing as it nears the critical angle of attack and eventually stalls.
This video tip is from the Sporty’s Learn to Fly Course, which includes complete training for Private and Sport Pilots.
