Stalls??

Not trying to be confrontational here, but I would rethink the way you
phrase this issue.
First of all, the stall can occur at ANY speed, and it absolutely
reversible, and it's reversible by decreasing the angle of attack below
stall. THIS is what "starts" the wing flying again...not an increase in
speed...although an increase in speed is coincident with the stall recovery.
For example, the P51 I flew had a laminar wing without stall strips and
I can assure you that just like any other airplane, the stall
characteristics of the wing were normal in every way.
