flying stall
1stall|ing speed — «STL ihng», the lowest speed an aircraft can travel in level flight without losing altitude: »If a plane s angle of attack is too great, the plane will stall even when flying at twice its normal stalling speed (Martin Caidin) …
2Stall (flight) — For other uses, see stall. In fluid dynamics, a stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a foil as angle of attack increases. This occurs when the critical angle of attack of the foil is exceeded. The critical angle of attack is… …

8Shock-stall — A shock stall is a stall caused by the airflow over an aircraft s wings being disturbed by shock waves when flying at or near to the aircraft s critical Mach number.Shock stall is the separation of the boundary layer behind the shock… …
9shock stall — A sudden reduction of the lift and an increase in the drag on an airfoil brought about at high Mach numbers by the airflow separation aft of a shock wave. Severe buffeting caused by a turbulent airflow behind the shock wave may also take place. A …
10whip stall — noun : a maneuver in which an airplane is put into a steeper climbing attitude than it is able to maintain and is held in this attitude until the speed is reduced to the stalling speed causing it to whip sharply into a steep nose down attitude… …
