Aerodynamic stall
Type: Concept
As of November 2026, Aerodynamic stall has been mentioned in one podcast episode on Megyn Kelly (Nov 2026). Discussed as part of Captain Steve's theory: the aircraft could have stalled due to ice and stress while climbing, contributing to the loss of control.
In fluid dynamics, a stall is a reduction in the lift coefficient generated by a foil as angle of attack exceeds its critical value. The critical angle of attack is typically about 15°, but it may vary significantly depending on the fluid, foil – including its shape, size, and finish – and Reynolds number.
