When are stall warning systems generally designed to begin warning the pilot?

  1. After a stall has occurred

  2. During landing only

  3. When a stall is imminent

  4. At all times during flight

The correct answer is: When a stall is imminent

Stall warning systems are generally designed to begin warning the pilot when a stall is imminent. This means that the system will alert the pilot before the stall actually occurs, giving them time to make corrections and prevent the stall. Option A is incorrect because if the warning only occurs after the stall has already happened, it would be too late for the pilot to take necessary action. Option B is incorrect because stall warning systems are designed for use during all phases of flight, not just during landing. Option D is incorrect because while the system is active at all times during flight, the warning will only sound when a stall is imminent. Therefore, option C is the correct and most accurate answer.
