Stalls
Aircraft stall characteristics are conventional. Power-off stalls may be
accompanied by a slight nose bobbing if full aft stick is held. Power-on
stalls are marked by a high sink rate at full aft stick. Power-off stall
speeds at maximum weight for both forward and aft CG positions are
presented in Section 5 - Performance Data.
When practicing stalls at altitude, as the airspeed is slowly reduced,
you will notice a slight airframe buffet, hear the stall speed warning
horn sound between 5 and 10 knots before the stall, and see the Crew
Alerting System display a STALL Warning annunciation. Normally, the
stall is marked by a gentle nose drop and the wings can easily be held
level or in the bank with coordinated use of the ailerons and rudder.
Upon stall warning in flight, recovery is accomplished by immediately
by reducing back pressure to maintain safe airspeed, adding power if
necessary and rolling wings level with coordinated use of the controls.
• WARNING •
Extreme care must be taken to avoid uncoordinated,
accelerated or abused control inputs when close to the stall,
especially when close to the ground.
