Oh Boy.This is a recipe for confusion. They start off with a Venturi which has nothing to do with lift generation and is one of the big myths! Lift is caused by turning flow.Turning flow is caused by angle of attack not wing shape If their lift explanation was correct supercritical wings wouldn't...

Lift is caused by changing the velocity (speed or direction) of a fluid (turning the air). If lift was cause by differences between the distance of the upper and lower surfaces, how do hang gliders fly? Or paper planes (and missiles) with flat wings, or aerobatic aircraft and helicopters which us...

@winterka100 That's right Winter-The air pressure under the wing is increased by the wing pushing it downwards and slightly forwards just like the bow wave of a ship. AOA creates the lift. without AOA you don't fly. Also the bit about the shape of the wing is rubbish. Hang gliders have a single s...

Perhaps when they mention suction they are speaking of boundary layer control which does apply mechanical suction to remove the boundary layer and delay separation. Otherwise as has been said there is no such thing as suction.There is a pressure drop which is caused by the air 'turning the corner...

This is rubbish. If it was correct symmetrical aerofoils (most aerobatic aircraft) would not work, nor would hang gliders, sailboats (single surface) or any modern airliner. Airliners have supercritical wings which are curved on the bottom and flatter on top. The basic test which proves this the...

@g1geo1g -Also remember that the air is not moving the wing is. The passage of the wing displaces air and creates a void which begins to collapse as the highest thickness/chord passes through, This collapse is caused by the normal air pressure acting on the shrinking void this shrinking and air'...

I love this Song. Takes me back. Nice complex melody and great lyrics

This was a good attempt by the Italians to make a jet powered aircraft but as Frank Whittle had determined many years before, the 'Motor Jet' as it was labelled (although it is not classified as a 'jet' engine as it could fly without combusting the core air) simply couldn't work in an engineerin...
