  2. Stall (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

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

    The most common stall-spin scenarios occur on takeoff (departure stall) and during landing (base to final turn) because of insufficient airspeed during these maneuvers. Stalls also occur during a go-around manoeuvre if the pilot does not properly respond to the out-of-trim situation resulting from the transition from low power setting to high ...

  3. Falling leaf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falling_leaf

    The falling leaf is often used as a training maneuver, teaching the pilot to control the plane during a stall and helping beginners to overcome the fear that happens when a plane stalls unexpectedly. It is generally performed from a low-speed, straight, level stall, to avoid the buffeting, departure from the normal flightpath, and flat spin ...

  4. HASELL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HASELL

    In aviation, in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, the United Kingdom and elsewhere, HASELL or alternatively HASEL, is a standard mnemonic to prompt a series of checks prior to carrying out many types of manoeuvres, such as stalls, spins, spiral dives or aerobatics.

  5. Radio-controlled aerobatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_aerobatics

    In a stall turn the plane goes upward, decelerates, yaws 180° under stall, and comes down nearly the same path it goes up, as if it gets hammered on the head. To perform a stall turn; From level flight input up elevator and reduce power until the aircraft stalls. The angle, speed, and abruptness at which stall occurs depends on the aircraft.

  6. Immelmann turn - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immelmann_turn

    In modern aerobatics, this maneuver, if executed pre-stall with a non-zero turning radius at the top of the climb, is known as a wingover. If the rudder turn is executed right at the initiation of the stall, the resulting yaw occurs around a point within the aircraft's wingspan and the maneuver is known as a stall turn or hammerhead.

  7. Vestibular rehabilitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestibular_rehabilitation

    Because the methods of vestibular rehabilitation therapy differ for different disorders, the form of vestibular dysfunction, ability level, and history of symptoms, each patient must be carefully assessed in order to diagnose vestibular dysfunction and to choose the correct exercises for treatment.Vestibular physiotherapy entails precise maneuvers and sports designed to deal with inner ear ...

  8. Supermaneuverability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supermaneuverability

    Pugachev's Cobra maneuver is one of the tests for supermaneuverability, here performed by an Su-27. Supermaneuverability is the capability of fighter aircraft to execute tactical maneuvers that are not possible with purely aerodynamic techniques. Such maneuvers can involve controlled side-slipping or angles of attack beyond maximum lift. [1]

  9. 3D Aerobatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_Aerobatics

    In its most basic sense, 3D flight is controlled flight beyond the stalls critical angle of attack (AoA, or alpha) aka post-stall. Because the model is stalled and has little natural airflow across its flight surfaces, most 3D maneuvers require very large control deflections to vector the propeller thrust and change the models attitude.
