During a stall scenario, what bank should be used once recovering?

• A. Bank wings level
• B. Bank 30°
• C. Roll to left wing
• D. Bank 0°

Answer: (A)

When recovering from a stall, the primary goal is to reestablish straight, coordinated flight by removing excess bank and returning to wings level. Level wings restore even lift across both wings, reduce the load factor, and help reattach the airflow cleanly, making it easier to regain stable flight and speed without risking a secondary stall or a spin. Keeping a bank, such as 30 degrees, keeps you in a turn and maintains an uneven loading on the wings, which can complicate the recovery and increase the chance of re-stalling or entering an uncommanded motion. Rolling toward one wing also disrupts the reestablishment of coordinated flight and can worsen the situation. Bank 0 degrees is the same as wings level, so the intended recovery action is to roll to wings level to secure a safe, stable demeanor before continuing.
