In a wing stall, one wing loses lift first, causing the aircraft to bank excessively. Ailerons, which are the wing control surfaces, become ineffective during a wing stall.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recovery Method-<\/strong> The recovery from a wing stall involves pushing the nose down to reduce the angle of attack, applying rudder opposite to the dropped wing, keeping ailerons neutral, and adding power.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; border-style: solid; background-color: #f2f0e9;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 100%;\"><strong>Angle of Attack-<\/strong> The angle of attack is the angle at which the wings meet the oncoming airflow.
