"Soft-Start" a pump with "pressure"?

I don't know why I bother… but I can't resist. There is a term aircraft engineers and pilots use called "flutter" You may or may not feel it in the airframe of the controls, and it occurs when a control surface oscillates more or less violently. If the airframe is properly designed and you stay within the limit speeds of the airframe it won't happen unless something has broken or slacked off. Then there is aerodynamic buffeting, which is occasioned by a stalled or partially stalled surface causing one or more flying surfaces — most often the horizontal stabiliser — to encounter turbulent air from the stalled surface. Not all aircraft exhibit aerodynamic buffeting before the wing stalls, and in those aircraft an angle of attack sensor (or sensors) activates first the stick shaker and, if that doesn't wake the flying pilot up, it activates a stick pusher — which can be overcome by the pilot, but takes a good deal of pull to do on aircraft with control feel. On aircraft without feel — the entire Airbus fleet — the flight computer is supposed to prevent stalls. It usually works. There are other sources of aerodynamic buffeting caused by atmospheric conditions, notably wake turbulence and thunderstorms, but also sometimes severe windshear, but these have a distinctive feel to them.

On the pilot not properly recognizing a stall… it does happen. The most common victims are people with more money than brains flying hot aircraft with inadequate training, although in one tragic case (Air France flight 447) it was less a money problem than an inadequate training problem., and there have been a few commercial cases where it was inadequate or slightly misleading training combined with inexperience.

I might add that unless the stall leads to an unrecoverable spin or it occurs at too low an altitude it is pretty much a non-event, assuming it is recognised. Advanced fighter aircraft deliberately use deep stalls as a combat tactic — a trick developed by the Swedes. All pilots train through a variety of stalls, to recognise them and make recovery automatic.

No… if the two guys I'd left in the front office seemed to be having trouble figuring out the stick shaker, I'd be down there right now — and set the power, angle of attack, and trim to my memorised values for cruise. Then… when we got back on the ground, there might be a bit of discussion about training or alternative occupations…😠
