There is a great deal of inertia resulting from the flying surfaces: wings, tailplane and fin of an aeroplane plus the air resistance produced by these large surface areas. However, do not shove the throttle to the fire wall to recover from the stall on very high powered types - the Spitfire might be one of them - because in that condition the aeroplane will very quickly flip inverted. A helicopter has little resistance around the normal axis (the rotor shaft) and so needs the tail rotor for control in yaw
