Ditto the above question-- unless the L/D ratio is really poor, the stall speed in a 45-degree banked turn ought to be about 1.189* the stall speed in the same configuration in wings-level flight. S This is probably an unneeded addition, but for the sake of completeness, I would change "45-degree banked turn" to "45-degree banked LEVEL turn in still air". Lots of us fly 45-degree banked turns in thermals without pressing the stick back much. |
