If you tilt your hand upward slightly, you can feel an increase in lift but if you tilt it too much, the airflow becomes turbulent, and lift suddenly decreases. This is why an aircraft can stall at higher airspeeds during abrupt maneuvers, a situation known as an acceleratedstall. But how does it occur in actual flight?
Your ailerons and rudder will be neutral once you’re in the crab position. Simultaneously, we apply ailerons opposite the rudder input. The ailerons control our lateral position over the runway. We use just enough aileron input to prevent the aircraft from drifting downwind. We call this de-crabbing.
