An accelerated stall is a stall that occurs at a higher airspeed than a 1G stall and can be caused by an aircraft making abrupt control inputs such as too much back pressure during a banked turn. As you may recall a stall can occur at any airspeed or attitude, as long as the wing’s critical angle of attack is exceeded and the accelerated stall demonstrats this fact.
