It's not obvious to me that for a given elevator position, rolling to keep the nose level would affect the likelihood of a stall. You are stopping the airplane from climbing, but the stall speed has increased because you are in a bank. Bank angle does not affect stall speed, the increased load factor that comes with a banked turn does. -- Dale L. Falk There is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing around with airplanes. http://home.gci.net/~sncdfalk/flying.html |
