Thinking about stalls
Put me in the "not enough info" column.
Plane #2 could be in fact _in_ a stall (or spin), "descending fast
with 50% power" or _more_. Think Delta Flight 191, for example.

Hi All,
Imagine a plane in 2 conditions.
1) Climbing with full power
2) Descending fast with 50% power.
Both have constant rates of ascent and descent.
Question A: Which wing is closer to stall?
Question B: A big updraft occurs, which is more likely to stall?
If you vote first it _may_ lead to some good discussion later...
Cheers
