With loss of control still the primary cause of aircraft fatalities, the FAA last year released the new Airmen Certification Standards, some aspects of it controversial, to replace the practical test ...
As the angle of attack is increased on a high-performance airfoil, a small amount of separation occurs near the leading edge. This separation causes the boundary layer to transition from laminar to ...
Aiming at the dynamic stall problem that restricts the improvement of aircraft maneuverability, a new dynamic stall control method based on leading-edge DSJ is proposed in this paper. The results show ...

How fighter pilots use “post-stall maneuvering” in air combat
Post-stall maneuvering” gives a plane excellent maneuverability—but the equipment needed to boost it comes with tradeoffs, as all advanced aircraft features do.
Considering the characteristics of large slenderness ratio structure, it is reasonable to simplify the dynamics of a HALE aircraft as the plunge, pitch, and flap motions of a planar airfoil. The ...
The NTSB issued urgent safety recommendations after two fatal Hawker business jet crashes in 2024 and 2025 during ...
A Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB) report released on Jan. 7 determined that a Cessna U206F conducting low-level ...
In Part 2, we discussed Learjet’s research into improving the stall characteristics of its aircraft. Bombardier’s Clinton E. Tanner, senior technical advisor of flight sciences, points out that ...
