Originally posted by Daniel Nelson e Finally, I think a pilot should have a basic understanding of how lift is generated, especially with respect to angle of attack. One could probably do with out the last one, but I do think it's important that pilots know what happens in a stall and what it does to your control surfaces.
Anyways, those are my thoughts. Opinions? [/B]
Oddly enough, Danny, your last one would be my first and most important one. In fact, in my opinion, if pilots were allowed to know but one aero principle, it should be how lift is generated.
