Default Thinking about stalls

WingFlaps wrote:
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



Is the "full power" climb with or without afterburner?? :-)
