Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Forces in Climbs• If the climb is
entered with no change in power setting, the airspeed gradually diminishes because the thrust required to maintain a given airspeed in level flight is insufficient to maintain the same airspeed in a climb.

Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• An aircraft stall
results from a rapid decrease in lift caused by the separation of airflow from the wing’s surface brought on by exceeding the critical AOA.
• A stall can occur at any pitch attitude or airspeed.
![Page 25: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stall
• In a stall, the wing does not totally stop producing lift.
• Rather, it can not generate adequate lift to sustain level flight.
![Page 26: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• CL increases with an increase in AOA, at some point the CL peaks and then begins to drop off.
• This peak is called the CL-MAX.
![Page 27: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• The amount of lift the wing produces drops dramatically after exceeding the CL-MAX or critical AOA, but as stated above, it does not completely stop producing lift.
![Page 28: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• In most straight-wing aircraft, the wing is designed to stall the wing root first.
• The wing root reaches its critical AOA first making the stall progress outward toward the wingtip.
![Page 29: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• By having the
wing root stall first, aileron effectiveness is maintained at the wingtips, maintaining controllability of the aircraft.
• Various design methods are used to achieve the stalling of the wing root first.
![Page 30: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• In one design, the
wing is “twisted” to a higher AOA at the wing root.
• Installing stall strips on the first 20–25 percent of the wing’s leading edge is another method to introduce a stall prematurely.
![Page 31: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• Most training aircraft are designed for the nose of the aircraft to drop during a stall, reducing the AOA and “unstalling” the wing.
![Page 32: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• The stalling speed
of a particular aircraft is not a fixed value for all flight situations, but a given aircraft always stalls at the same AOA regardless of airspeed, weight, load factor, or density altitude.
![Page 33: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• This critical AOA
varies from 16° to 20° depending on the aircraft’s design.
• But each aircraft has only one specific AOA where the stall occurs.

Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• There are three flight situations in which the critical AOA can be exceeded: low speed, high speed, and turning.
![Page 37: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• The aircraft can be stalled in straight-and-level flight by flying too slowly.
![Page 38: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• As the airspeed
decreases, the AOA must be increased to retain the lift required for maintaining altitude.
• The lower the airspeed becomes, the more the AOA must be increased.
![Page 39: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• Low speed is not
necessary to produce a stall.
• The wing can be brought into an excessive AOA at any speed.
• In a dive, the aircraft’s AOA changes abruptly from quite low to very high.
![Page 40: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• Since the flightpath of
the aircraft in relation to the oncoming air determines the direction of the relative wind, the AOA is suddenly increased, and the aircraft would reach the stalling angle at a speed much greater than the normal stall speed.
![Page 41: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• The stalling speed of an aircraft is also higher in a level turn than in straight-and-level flight.
![Page 42: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• In a turn, additional lift is acquired by applying back pressure to the elevator control.
• This increases the wing’s AOA, and results in increased lift.
![Page 43: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• If at any time during a turn the AOA becomes excessive, the aircraft stalls.
![Page 44: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• To balance the
aircraft aerodynamically, the CL is normally located aft of the CG.
• This makes the aircraft inherently nose-heavy, downwash on the horizontal stabilizer counteracts this condition.
![Page 45: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• At the point of
stall, this allows the aircraft to pitch down abruptly, rotating about its CG.
• During this nose-down attitude, the AOA decreases and the airspeed again increases.
![Page 46: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• The smooth flow of air over the wing begins again, lift returns, and the aircraft is again flying.
• Considerable altitude may be lost before this cycle is complete.
![Page 47: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls• Airfoil shape and degradation of that shape must also be considered in a discussion of stalls.
• If ice, snow, and frost are allowed to accumulate on the surface of an aircraft, the smooth airflow over the wing is disrupted.
![Page 48: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• This causes the boundary layer to separate at an AOA lower than that of the critical angle.
• Lift is greatly reduced, altering expected aircraft performance.
![Page 49: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• If ice is allowed to accumulate on the aircraft during flight the weight of the aircraft is increased while the ability to generate lift is decreased.
![Page 50: Warm-Up – 11/12 – 10 minutes](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062812/568162cc550346895dd35926/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Stalls
• Icing can occur in clouds any time the temperature drops below freezing and super-cooled droplets build up on an aircraft and freeze.
