2. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_(fluid_dynamics)

   A fixed-wing aircraft can be made to stall in any pitch attitude or bank angle or at any airspeed but deliberate stalling is commonly practiced by reducing the speed to the unaccelerated stall speed, at a safe altitude. Unaccelerated (1g) stall speed varies on different fixed-wing aircraft and is represented by colour codes on the airspeed ...

3. V speeds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V_speeds

   Stall speed or minimum steady flight speed for which the aircraft is still controllable in a specific configuration. [7] [8] V S R: Reference stall speed. [7] V S R 0: Reference stall speed in landing configuration. [7] V S R 1: Reference stall speed in a specific configuration. [7] V SW: Speed at which the stall warning will occur. [7] V TOSS

4. Steady flight - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steady_flight

   Steady flight, unaccelerated flight, or equilibrium flight is a special case in flight dynamics where the aircraft's linear and angular velocity are constant in a body-fixed reference frame. [1] Basic aircraft maneuvers such as level flight, climbs and descents, and coordinated turns can be modeled as steady flight maneuvers. [ 2 ]

5. Coffin corner (aerodynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coffin_corner_(aerodynamics)

   Coffin corner (also known as the aerodynamic ceiling [1] or Q corner) is the region of flight where a fast but subsonic fixed-wing aircraft's stall speed is near the critical Mach number, at a given gross weight and G-force loading. In this region of flight, it is very difficult to keep an airplane in stable flight.

6. Aircraft flight dynamics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_flight_dynamics

   The three critical flight dynamics parameters are the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle's center of gravity (cg), known as pitch, roll and yaw. These are collectively known as aircraft attitude , often principally relative to the atmospheric frame in normal flight, but also relative to terrain during takeoff or landing ...

7. Flight envelope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_envelope

   A chart of velocity versus load factor (or V-n diagram) is another way of showing limits of aircraft performance. It shows how much load factor can be safely achieved at different airspeeds. [3] At higher temperatures, air is less dense and planes must fly faster to generate the same amount of lift.

   An American Airlines plane lands at La Guardia International Airport one day after a global IT outage, in New York, on July 20, 2024. Planes were gradually taking off again Saturday after global ...

9. Aircraft design process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_design_process

   Advanced Supersonic Transport (AST) model in wind tunnel. The aircraft design process is a loosely defined method used to balance many competing and demanding requirements to produce an aircraft that is strong, lightweight, economical and can carry an adequate payload while being sufficiently reliable to safely fly for the design life of the aircraft.
