Abstract An elementary device, actuated by the conventional stall warning vane, is described which can be inexpensively installed in any aircraft. The new device, the Stall Barrier, prevents stalls through (1) warning the pilot through the 'touch sense' of the impending stall, and (2) taking corrective action for the pilot. Short-field take-offs, slow flight, and short-field landings, can all be accomplished safely with this device at absolute minimum speeds.
