Principles of Flighteasy#589

In icing conditions, the stall speed:

A

Increases because ice contamination reduces CLmax

Correct
B

Decreases

C

Remains the same

D

Depends on outside temperature only

Explanation

Ice on the wing disrupts airflow and reduces CLmax; a higher speed is needed to generate sufficient lift, so stall speed increases.
