Principles of Flight (Briefing:Advanced stalling)1. Principles of Flight- Aeroplane stalls at critical angle,and speed will vary with configuration - Manufacturers list stall speeds for simplicity - Anything that Increase Lift required means an Increase airspeed at the stall airspeed will be higher at the critical angle - Anything that Decrease Lift required meansa decrease airspeed at the stall Factors Affecting Stall Speed(Briefing:Advanced stalling)Weight: Increase Weight requires Increase Lift = Increase stalling speed (Same nose attitude) Ice/Damage: Changes flow and increases weight, requires Increase Lift = Increase stalling speed (Same nose attitude) Loading Increase Apparent weight requires Increase Lift = Increasestalling speed (Same nose attitude) Power: Increase Power requires Decrease Lift due Increase airspeed over wing = Decrease stalling speed (Higher nose attitude) Slats/Slots / Flap Flap Increase Lift = decrease stalling speed (Lower nose attitude) Aileron: Down-going wing will have Increase Angle of Attack,beyond stall decrease Lift and Increase Drag further = continued roll, not stopping it 2.
