The incident was found to have happened after their EV-97 EuroStar light aircraft experienced an aerodynamic stall after ...
Pilots on the Air Atlanta Icelandic flight had to dump 20 tons of fuel before making a U-turn over the Atlantic and returning ...
Two men died in a plane crash in Staffordshire when the aircraft went into a spin and plunged to the ground before bursting ...
Rows of flaps inspired by bird wing feathers improve airfoil performance by boosting lift, reducing drag and mitigating stall.
Anti-stall systems prevent a plane from pointing upwards at too high an angle, where it could lose its lift. However, during flight JT610, the plane's automatic anti-stalling system repeatedly ...
The technology echoes bird biology, specifically covert wing feathers that birds use when landing or facing turbulent winds.
The researchers deployed rows of flaps to the wing design to prevent aircraft from stalling, much like birds deploy their covert feathers to achieve certain aerial maneuvers. Covert feathers are a ...
