All lift and drag data for these airfoils were generated using NASA's FoilSim III software, version 1.3. Data assume average cruise speed for each type of aircraft. Special Thanks: ...

The airfoil is still producing lift, albeit inefficiently and with a substantial increase in drag. There are several sources to find the exact lift and drag behavior of the airfoil used on your ...

As the angle increases, though, it also causes more drag. Angle the airfoil too high, and its ability to create lift is greatly reduced. This is called a "stall". You stalled!
