You are welcome. I know that most appreciate the help that some of us already here give. Yes I do agree with you about lift being greatest “just at lift off” and in the level acceleration phase if for the only reason that weight is the greatest. If we ignored the fact that weight changes with time, lift is the greatest in level flight, turns and any other maneuvers greater than 1g. Lift is the least in a steady climb and descent and any maneuver less than 1g. Oh and another common belief: “Flaps increase lift”. Nope, they increase the lifting ability of a wing at lower speeds.
Good luck with your interview. Don’t stress if you can’t answer a question. Just tell them you aren’t sure. Don’t BS them as they can see that. All they are really looking for is someone that can sell himself or herself and can handle a bit of stress and is not a pain in the butt. Knowing your tech stuff just means you have put the effort in.
Good luck with the interview. I’m sure you’ll do well.
