PR-AEP-MISC P26/34). Again, per FCTM definition stall is a condition in aerodynamics where the AOA increases beyond a point such that the lift begins to decrease, won't it be prudent to make use of a device asap that will aid in increasing airplane's maximum lift coefficient and complement the stall recovery process.
