So, I tried reading the wikipedia article covering the subject, but nothing made sense; so if y’all could explain the critical attack and things like that as well, it would be great!!
In: Physics
A stall is when the aerodynamic forces acting on an aircraft’s wings are no longer providing sufficient lift to keep it airborne. This is dangerous for what I hope are obvious reasons. If there’s no lift acting on the plane, there’s nothing keeping it in the air.
The critical angle of attack (how much the aircraft is pointed upward) is the maximum angle at which a plane’s wings can be angled upward before they stall and stop providing lift.
