What are three components of a stall for aircraft?

Question

Have a review sheet that I have to complete and this one question I am stuck on. My guess would be loss of lift, Criticle Angle of Attack, and Reducing pitch.

Answer 1

I cant think of 3  "components" but, several Causes:

1) excess angle  of attack

2)  airspeed below stall speed.

3) excess weight

4)load factor--weight & balance. This can cause excess pitch/AOA.

5) Center of gravity  location--again, affected by loading, affects AOA

5) low engine power ( a Cause of low IAS)

Stall is caused by lack of sufficient lift; in cases of excess pitch/AOA, the laminar airflow over top of wing breaks into turbulence, so insufficient vacuum atop  wing.  Way to recover is almost always to  pitch nose  Downward (Counter-intuitive) and increase engine power. With the V- Tail Beech "Bonanza", it was handled Differently. . That's why so many crashes with them.

Answer 2

Understand aerodynamics, you'll understand what to expect.

Answer 3

"Stall" is the loss of lift and it has to do with speed and just how far up your nose is pointed. Not being schooled as a pilot, I can't think of the third.

Just please let us know when and where you are flying- because I don't want to be any where near the crash zone.

Answer 4

Aviation is unforgiving of the lazy, ignorant and incompetent. If you're going to fly, this is critical knowledge. You need to commit it to memory. 

Reducing pitch is not a component of a stall, it's a component of the stall recovery. An uncommanded pitch down is often a symptom of a stall, but it is not necessarily a component of stalls in all airplanes in all configurations. . 

Critical angle of attack is not a component of a stall, but EXCEEDING  the critical angle of attack is a component of all stalls. 

Insufficient airspeed is also a component of all stalls. Just remember that this does not necessarily mean low airspeed. Increased g-loading and uncoordinated flight can lead to stalls at higher airspeeds 9i.e. accelerated stalls,

If you meant to ask the three components of a stall recovery - level the wings, pitch down and increase power.

Answer 5

Stall is a function of AOA

Answer 6

Reducing pitch is a cure, not a component of a stall.  Better would be low air speed.
