This happens regardless of weight, bank angle, temperature, density altitude, or center of gravity. This flight instrument measures the angle between an aircraft’s wing and the relative wind, providing a visual representation of how much lift the wings are generating at a given airspeed or angle of bank.

2: What effect does high density altitude have on the efficiency of a UA propeller? Density altitude does not affect propeller efficiency. You should expect to see questions that show you understand what happens when you change an aircraft’s balance, stability, and center of gravity.

The airfoil is a Harry Riblett shape, giving modernized flow separation on the leading edge for a soft stall yet with good lift and drag performance. It was 87° F, a density altitude of 7300 feet and we ended up with four people, 120 gallons plus baggage, and we got off in 2400 feet with naturally aspirated engines.
