Understanding Stalls & Spins
“What causes the airplane to spin?” Many high-time professional pilots and flight instructor applicants typically answer, “One wing is stalled more than another.” While that’s a great answer, how do we stall one wing more than another? The response usually includes a blank stare. Mark King and Brian Schiff will answered this question during NAFI's 50th episode of MentorLive which aired on November 17, 2021 at 5:00 pm Pacific. It addressed the myths, wives’ tales, and untruths regarding stalls and spins.
