Hi
I've been reading the aerodynamics section on 'the technical pilot interview' book and it came up a few times in the answers, example;
The properties that affect an aircrafts stall speed:
Weight
a.Actual Weight
b.Load factor, g in a turn
c.Effective weight/center of gravity position
How does the stall speed vary with weight:
"The stall speed will increase with an increase in the aircraft's autual or effective weight"
Thanks
