In this episode of Propeller Breeze, we break down one of the most misunderstood concepts in aviation: aircraft stalls. What really happens when a wing stalls? Is it true that lift just disappears? Spoiler: not quite.

Join us as we explore:

  • What causes a stall and why it's all about exceeding the critical Angle of Attack

  • Common myths vs. aerodynamic reality

  • How aircraft are designed to stall safely—and recover smoothly

  • Why center of gravity matters more than you think during stall recovery

  • How stalls can happen even at high speeds or in turns

  • The serious impact of icing on airfoil performance and stall behavior

Whether you’re a student pilot, sim enthusiast, or aviation geek, this episode will give you a solid understanding of how and why stalls occur—and what keeps aircraft safe when they do.
