Default RE: Tip Stall

It is countered in some AC by washout. The wing is warped slightly so that the wing has a lesser angle of attack at it's tip than at the root. The wing will stall at the root, and then the stall will procede towards the tip allowing for better control through the stall. Piper Cub is a an example of this.
