Burble

A separation or breakdown of the laminar flow past a body; the eddying or turbulent flow resulting from this.
Burble occurs over an airfoil operating at an angle of attack greater than the angle of maximum lift, resulting in a loss of lift and an increase of drag. See compressibility burble.
