The turbulent air hits the horizontal stabilizer, which causes a vibration that can be felt throughout the aircraft. You should always test the stall warning system on the ground to ensure it works. Buffeting Buffeting occurs when the boundary layer begins to separate from the wing surface.

Placing the center of gravity ahead of the aircraft’s center of lift improves longitudinal stability. The aircraft’s horizontal stabilizer (tailplane) creates a downward lift to counterbalance pitching moments. Directional Stability Directional stability decides how stable the aircraft is about the yaw axis.

It most commonly forms on the leading edges of your aircraft, including the wings, tail, and horizontal stabilizer, as well as on the propeller blades and pitot tubes. Because rime ice forms quickly and has a rough texture, it tends to build up in these forward-facing surfaces that are directly exposed to the oncoming airflow.
