Blue-green algae produce two toxins, each with different symptoms. Signs of neurotoxin poisoning usually appear 15 to 20 minutes after ingestion. In animals, symptoms include weakness, staggering, difficulty in breathing, convulsions and ultimately death. In humans, symptoms may include numbness of the lips, tingling in fingers and toes, and dizziness.
Aeropro imposed the weight limitation so that the aircraft could comfortably meet ASTM stall speed requirements (a maximum of 51 mph) for Light Sport aircraft. The Aerotrek stalls at 43 mph indicated airspeed with flaps down and 49 mph with flaps retracted. Trim and flap levers (left inset) are easy to reach. The trim is the shorter lever, while the longer flap lever moves through its full range without detents.
If the vehicle isn't moving by the time the impeller reaches the stall speed, either it will start to move, or the engine RPM will no longer increase. In other words, stall speed is the engine RPM at which the torque converter transfers the power of the engine to the transmission. In the real world, the torque converter's stall speed roughly equates to the clutch engagement point on a manual transmission. Let's say you're driving your stick-shift car around town. Normally, you'd give the car a little gas and ease off the clutch pedal gently enough to get a smooth start.
