Turbulence Technique advice...help?

so none of the airplanes ive ever flown have an operational

...and therefore cannot stall.

...and therefore cannot stall at Va, safely.

With the exception of those that can.

Now can anyone explain the physics?

Yes, but first 2 questions: (1) Of which, Va or Vo; and (2) Do you want math and words or just words?

How about "Words you'd want a CFI to teach someone flying your family members around someday" for $100, Bob?

More interested in the words. I lokely would not folow the math...

Gimme a day or two. This one's going to take more than my usual amount of proffreading

Here's a teaser: Va is a design speed, Vo is an operating limitation. The distinction is important

Nauga,
and the paper vs. metal airplane debate

I Still struggle with corner speed. I have had multiple military pilots try and explain the math behind it, and I never understand it. At this point, I just accept it, even if it does not make sense.

Tim

Corner airspeed is simply the speed at and above which Maximum G is available. Below corner airspeed you cannot over-G the plane regardless of how hard you pull on the stick because the wing will stall before you reach an over-stress.

I wrote this up and promptly forgot about it. For your reading pleasure (or comic relief):

Nauga,
who hopes it helps
