MZeroA Nation, Jason here.
Fifth and final video in our Flight Maneuver Series.
Hope you've been really enjoying it.
We're talking now about accelerated stalls, a commercial pilot maneuver.
A commercial pilot maneuver, but I want you, private pilots, to see it.
You can hurt yourself doing an accelerated stall.
You can hurt the airplane doing accelerated stalls.
Practice these with your instructor.
You're not going to take this to a break.
You're going to take it to the first sign of a stall, usually, the warning horn.
Here's how it works.
Clearing turns are already done.
You want to be at maneuvering speed, or less, no flaps.
I'm going to say it again.
At maneuvering speed, or less, no flaps.
From there,
you roll right into a steep turn, just like you normally would.
45 degrees of bank.
We rolled that steep turn.
And, we gradually increase our bank.
Pull back.
Feel the G-force.
Pull back.
Stall warning horn discontinue, push forward.
That's an accelerated stall, or the brink of an accelerated stall.
If I were to take that all the way, it's going to break.
And, probably, you want to spin to the left and just continue that all the way around.
Let me show you one more time.
Less than maneuvering speed.
Life's looking good.
Clear left.
Turn to the left.
Start my steep turn.
Smoothly but consistently pull back.
Don't yank it.
Just pull.
Keep adding pressure.
Stall warning horn, discontinue.
Step.
I got to step in there with my right foot in there as well.
Accelerated stalls.
Why do we do an accelerated stall?
We do accelerated stalls to demonstrate to you that stalls don't just happen
like straight ahead and hanging up by the warning horn,
and they break.
We stall at the same critical angle of attack every time.
That can be met any number of ways.
Yet, we get ingrained in our mind,
I just stall when I get slow and I pick my nose up too much.
You can stall in a steep turn.
I guarantee, if you've been in a flight train long enough,
you've done a steep turn where the stall warning horn went on,
and the Gs were putting you down in your seat,
you felt like a Blue Angel.
That's the brink of an accelerated stall.
You discontinue your steep turn when that happens.
Why do we teach accelerated stalls?
Oftentimes, that base-to-final stall spin that you hear so much about,
oftentimes, that could be an accelerated stall.
It could happen during a steep turn.
It could happen base-to-final.
It could happen final approach fix inbound, my instrument pilots.
A lot of scenarios could be the ripe breeding grounds
for an accelerated stall.
I'll give you a different one.
You could have an accelerated stall coming out of a very abrupt dive
and picking up too abruptly.
You can have an accelerated stall.
And, that's more about the loading on the aircraft as well.
Something else to always ponder and think about with that.
Something else to always ponder and think about, no doubt.
So, listen, MZeroA Nation.
I hope you loved this five-part Flight Maneuvers Series.
Please, be sure to give it a share, give it a thumbs-up as well,
and like the whole playlist.
We really appreciate that.

Have a blessed, amazing, outstanding rest of your day.
And most importantly, remember,
that a good pilot is always learning.
Have a great day, everybody. We'll see you.
