    The eastern bluebird is the state bird of Missouri. This list of birds of Missouri includes species documented in the U.S. state of Missouri and accepted by the Missouri Birding Society (MBS). As of July 2021, there are 437 species included in the official list. [1]

  3. Washout (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washout_(aeronautics)

    On aircraft with swept wings, wing tip stall also produces an undesirable nose-up pitching moment which hampers recovery from the stall. Washout may be accomplished by other means e.g. modified aerofoil section, vortex generators, leading edge wing fences, notches, or stall strips. This is referred to as aerodynamic washout.

  4. Troides aeacus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troides_aeacus

    The underside of the wings is quite similar to the upside. The females are larger than the males and have dark-brown or black wings. Head, thorax and abdomen of this butterfly are mainly black, with small red patches on the thorax and a yellow underside of the abdomen. Caterpillars are pale brown, with long protrusions resembling thorns.

  5. Icing (aeronautics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icing_(aeronautics)

    Stall characteristics of an aircraft with ice-contaminated wings will be degraded, and serious roll control problems are not unusual. The ice accretion may be asymmetric between the two wings which requires calibrating. Also, the outer part of a wing, which is ordinarily thinner and thus a better collector of ice, is likely to stall first.

  6. Clark Y airfoil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clark_Y_airfoil

    The flat bottom simplifies angle measurements on propellers, and makes for easy construction of wings. For many applications the Clark Y has been an adequate airfoil section; it gives reasonable overall performance in respect of its lift-to-drag ratio, and has gentle and relatively benign stall characteristics. The flat lower surface is not ...

  7. Wing twist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wing_twist

    Wing twist is an aerodynamic feature added to aircraft wings to adjust lift distribution along the wing.. Often, the purpose of lift redistribution is to ensure that the wing tip is the last part of the wing surface to stall, for example when executing a roll or steep climb; it involves twisting the wingtip a small amount downwards in relation to the rest of the wing.

  9. Elliptical wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptical_wing

    The almost uniform lift distribution of a constant-aerofoil section elliptical wing can cause the entire span of the wing to stall simultaneously, potentially causing loss of control with little warning. To improve the stalling characteristics and give the pilot some warning, designers use a non-uniform aerofoil.
