What is a Stall? What is Angle of Attack? | King Schools

In this video, John King covers the basics of Angle of Attack and Stalls. This video an excerpt from our Private Pilot Ground School & Test Prep: www.kingschools.com/ground-sc...

This man deserves heaven it is not difficult learn and understand the topics with you. Thank you!

[@MiG2107]

John and Martha were technically my first flight instructors back in the days of Flight Sim 2002. I’ll never forget their impact on me and I’m sure a lot of other pilots.

[@chloethewritingcoach9644]

best explanation i've heard so far! thank you!!!

[@KingSchools]

Glad it was helpful!

[@jaymata1218]

This video and the clear force vectors explained it so well.

[@miltonjunior5173]

Crystal clear. Cheers.

[@welcomexnewlin8144]

thank you. You are such a great teacher, makes all seem so simple after watching it. :)

[@justineberocan9388]

Best teacher of aviation big up sir

[@omkardhaybar8044]

Thanks ❤️ it really helps me to understand 🤗

[@taharbenseddik5607]

Aerodynamics is such an amazing subject in order to understand the basics.

[@saam4312]

Now that's what I call learning.

[@taylorobrien-ducharme7151]

This guy is great

[@StagnantMizu]

great video!

[@javanskeebs]

this was a great video, thank you so much!!

[@KingSchools]

You're so welcome!

[@zixuanchen4506]

This video clearly explains the foreign language I read from textbooks :P

[@bobbobertson7568]

Very easy to understand, great explanation

[@KingSchools]

Glad it was helpful!

[@juanvillota9097]

Navy pilot student here. Great explanation, thank you very much

[@KingSchools]

You got it! Thanks for watching.

[@ashutoshpatil2156]

Very well explained

[@KingSchools]

Glad it was helpful!

what I don't understand is why a stall on the upoer side of the wing makes the wing not produce lift since below the wing, air is still hitting the lower side pushing it up so shouldnt it?

[@thetwogardens6048]

Its more a case of that the wing is getting sucked up from the top of the wing ! When that does not happen its stalling !

[@neeleshdubey1159]

Sir i don't know whether you'll read my comments or not...... Thank you so much for making this video ☺️🙏.

[@KingSchools]

So nice of you!

[@SpamMouse]

So often we see examples in the various compilation plane crash videos, too slow or hard banking at low altitude the poor plane just ceases to fly...... :-(

[@gregschwartz6886]

And that is how you teach.

[@arkkapadi8061]

What if we deploy flaps, what will be the change in angle of attack?

[@synergy6294]

The Mystery of Airfoil has been solved ! The reason it took so long to get to the reality of lift was the basic error in assuming there’s some kind of flow of air over the airfoil, which gave rise to various erroneous non-existent and irrelevant concepts e.g. Bernoulli, Flow-Separation,etc. Everything is covered in the book, in detail. The matter was a very simple one, but the wind tunnel gave the scientists true tunnel vision for the past century. Check tekemon.

[@donkeybong8798]

But the Velocity is dependent on the density of the air. In which case , the stall speed must vary at different altitudes. Can you clarify , please?

[@appuwaj3095]

What I understood is the relative speed of the aircraft with respect to the ground is increased but the airspeed remains the same as it requires the same amount of pressure to calculate the airspeed.

[@antoniokastrocarlisledemel6617]

It's probably a stupid question but how do planes keep from stalling when ascending to cruising altitude? Or does it just keep to the the angle it has at takeoff?

[@lawrencebell8837]

Remember it is the angle between the relative wind and the chord line, not the horizon and the chord line.

[@antoniokastrocarlisledemel6617]

@@lawrencebell8837 oh ok thanx for that knowledge man, I've been an Aviation Super Freak for 30 yrs now so this is most definitely something I should have a deep understanding of

[@AbdulazizAlmawash]

hmm... so here he says at critical AOA the wing stalls.. but on my commercial test prep it says at critical AOA the wing still has smooth airflow, weird.. here is the question + the correct answer as it appears on the practice exam: "94. Reaching the critical angle of attack means that the wing will ___" *A. continue to have smooth airflow.* B. stall. C. have separation of airflow over the trailing edge.

[@harryroberts388]

Big big big confusions made by a lot of SPs. Relative airflow IS NOT the horizon. Your pitch angle is not necessarily your AoA. Just know that relative airflow can change... And it operates in the parallel direction of the direction of movement, in the opposite direction.

[@YouTubeAreCommunistScum]

UFO’s are all like…ppfffttt peasant tech

[@KingSchools]

Haha! For real.

[@naseralbadareen3527]

acute angle is angle of attack angle of attack is acute angle acute angle is angle of attack

[@danfouts6628]

It is not air molecules...it's water molecules that are heavier than air.

[@Avg-eeks-idlemode]

Angle of attack= USSR💀(dog flight)
