What is the minimum entry altitude for practice stalls?

The minimum entry altitude for practice stalls is set to ensure safety and provide adequate recovery time in case of an unintentional loss of control. At 5,000 feet AGL (Above Ground Level), pilots have sufficient altitude to practice stalls while allowing for enough time to recover safely should the need arise. This altitude affords a margin for error and the necessary reaction time, thereby reducing the risk of incidents that could occur if practice stalls were conducted at lower altitudes.

Conducting practice stalls at this altitude also adheres to established safety protocols as it aligns with best practices in flight training. It ensures that pilots are adequately trained without compromising safety, allowing for realistic practice scenarios that prepare them for potential in-flight situations. Lower altitudes may not provide the same level of safety and recovery opportunity, making 5,000 feet the preferable standard for stall training.
