Module 11. Aeroplane aerodynamics, structures and systems
Which part of the wing of a swept - wing aircraft stalls first?
•  Both stall together.
•  Root stalls first.
•  Tip stalls first.

lucdam56 asking:
•  why tip? In swept-wing aircraft, the airflow partially moves toward the wingtip (the "spanwise flow" effect), causing a different lift distribution compared to straight wings. To avoid stability and controllability issues during a stall, the aerodynamic design is often optimized so that the wing root stalls before the tip.
