remain the same regardless of gross weight.
increase if the CG is moved forward.
change with an increase in gross weight.
What condition must exist in order for an airplane to spin?
Airplane is in a partial stall with one wing low.
Airplane is in a stall.
Airplane is in a steep spiral dive.
During a spin to the left, which wing(s) is/are stalled?
Both wings are stalled.
Neither wing is stalled.
Only the left wing is stalled.
In what flight condition must an aircraft be placed in order to spin?
Partially stalled with one wing low.
Stalled.
In a steep diving spiral.
During an approach to a stall, an increased load factor will cause the aircraft to
be more difficult to control.
stall at a higher airspeed.
have a tendency to spin.
As altitude increases, the indicated airspeed at which a given airplane stalls in a particular configuration will
remain the same regardless of altitude.
decrease as the true airspeed increases.
decrease as the true airspeed decreases.
The angle between an airfoil's chord line and the relative wind is called the angle of
incidence.
attack.
lift.
