The lowest airspeed (stall speed) for most fixed-wing aircraft is primarily determined by its wing loading and the wing's maximum lift coefficient. Claims of extremely low or "no" stall speeds, often ...

A normalized lift coefficient indicator has been developed for single-engine aircraft. The system developed incorporates a low-cost capacitance type pressure transducer and an electronic circuit to ...

“I always use flaps for climb. I get more lift that way.” Some would call this statement perfectly logical, because flaps do increase lift and increased lift certainly ought to make an airplane climb ...
