Stall Recovery

An aircraft in a deep stall.

A stall is when you lose too much speed, or your angle of attack is too high and you start falling out of a sky. A way to recognize you are stalling is when you nose is up, but you are descending dangerously fast. Usually, a stall alarm would sound. Causes of stalls include: nose angle too high, speed too low.
In this tutorial, I will tell you how to recover from a stall.








Smaller Aircrafts
(Cessna, cirrus, F-14)

1. First, before we do the recovery procedures, we must do a few checks. Make sure the autopilot is off. Make sure your flaps are up, and your gear is up. This is to make sure there is no drag when in the process of recovering.
2. Push forwards, and point your nose down to a 15 degrees position. Apply full power, and apply full right rudder. This is to lower your rate of descent. 
3. Once your speed is up to a safe level, slowly pull up and level off.

Larger Aircrafts

(Boeing, airbus, CRJ, Embraer)

1. First, make sure that your gear is up, your flaps are up, and your speedbrakes (spoilers) are down. This is to make sure the aircraft is as streamline as possible, and no drag is present to interfere with our recovery procedures. Also make sure the autopilot is fully disengaged.
2. Push forwards, and point your nose down to a 10 degree position. Apply full power. Use full right rudder if necessary.
3. Once your speed is up to a safe level, slowly pull up and level off.

How to Execute Go Around (Missed Approach)

So, your landing is going badly, and you don't want to continue?  Then you should execute a go around. In this tutorial, I will show you how. 

Apply TO/GA power (usually 100% throttle), and retract flaps to flaps 2. (10-15 degrees). Pull up gently and start climbing. Upon a positive rate of climb, retract the landing gear. 

Continue climbing to 6000 feet, then perform a 180 degrees turn, and realign with the runway. Now continue with the landing. In some cases, it is required to circle around the airport to land on the same runway and angle. Make sure your bank dont exceed 30 degrees.
