I don't understand the first part (higher speed and climbing?) and the
second part is wrong.
If I leave the flaps at 0 degrees in my aircraft, bring the power back to
decelerate, and maintain level flight, she will stall at about 53 mph indicated.
The relative wind will be essentially horizontal, since that is the direction in
which the aircraft is actually traveling.
If I leave the flaps at 0 degrees, slow down to 60 mph indicated and raise the
nose enough to stall, the aircraft will be climbing just prior to the stall. The
relative wind will be "coming from above", since that is the direction in which
the aircraft is traveling.
