Research suggests that free-moving panels on aircraft wings can improve stability, reduce turbulence, and add fuel efficiency ...

It could happen if the aircraft were to stall—that is, lose lift on the wings—and pitch nose-down and be too close to the ground for the pilot to achieve a recovery. An aircraft out of control ...

Wind tunnel tests and RC aircraft trials revealed a fascinating ... during takeoff and landing – phases where even a brief stall could spell disaster. The concept shares similarities with ...

“When this happens, lift decreases, and drag increases, which can lead to a stall and make the aircraft harder to control.” The researchers report that they can reduce the size of these ...
