ACS element text (the applicant demonstrates understanding of)

Stall warning(s) during normal operations.

Bottom line

A stall can lead to loss of control if the angle of attack is not reduced. Indications of an impending stall can include buffeting, stick shaker, or aural warning. When the airplane reaches the stall warning, recovery is accomplished by first reducing the AOA until the stall warning is eliminated.
