Why One Wing Stalls First

- Understanding how one wing of an airplane might stall before the other can be challenging. However, this concept is much easier to understand with animation. Here's an excerpt from my upcoming eCourse titled, "How to Fly an Airplane," not to be confused with my currently published eCourse, "The Art of Takeoffs and Landings."

Flew for 26 years, Lost of Different instructors. This is the BEST illistration of HOW/WHY a wings stall & how that correct Control input is essential to preventing entering a SPIN when Practcing Stalls or when Low & Slow in a Traffic Pattern. Thanks Even though my flying days are long past I Subbed your cahnel.
Rod Machado is a legend!
In the F-4 Phantom, stalling during a turn was a terrifying experience -- it would spin like a child's top (and sometimes tumble around both the yaw and roll axis), all roll control would usually be lost, and sometimes the engines would quit as well (and back then, if a jet engine flamed out in midair, it wasn't all that easy to restart it again!) And if it ever flipped topsy-turvy during a spin, recovery was almost impossible!
I was just banging my head on this topic all last night into this morning after I watched your live-demonstration video from four years ago. As I was trying to understand the physics on my way to a morning Dr.'s appointment I found myself using my right hand (that's my "airplane hand," see) to try to figure out just what in the heck you were talking about. Then lo and behold you just happen to release a video today of all days giving me a visual representation on slips and spins. Thank you! I'm still trying to wrap my mind around this but it's still a huge help.
Thanks for the easy to understand video on stalls with graphics. Clear explanation with no loud music and background sound.
Thank you sir!
I would like to know more about the downward flow of wing rotation. I've never heard of this before.
Excellent presentation, thanks!!!
BRILLIANT
A Quick Banking AOA Stall. Happens a lot on an overshot final and pilot banks more quickly to save the approach. Its not only the steeper turn, but the quick banking AOA increase too.
Great !!!!
Is there a resource that gives an easy application as to why the aft wing has a higher AOA? What does the “downward angle of wing rotation” mean?
Beautiful explanation. However, could you explain how and why a particular wing drops first in a climbing turn stall vs a descending turn stall?
Nice! What if you’re stalling in a turning, coordinated descent?
So this isnt satisfying me. If an airplane is yawed but flying in a straight line it will still drop the wing that the rudder is towards.
