Inverted Flight
An engineer friend and I were having this conversation the other day and could not come up with a satisfactory answer.....
A 'normal' wing produces lift by generating lower pressure above it.
If we were to invert the wing, all other things being equal, we assumed it would produce a downward force similar to a rear wing on an F1 car.
If this is the case, how is it possible to fly inverted?
Forgive me if this is slightly 'lay-man,' but I'm not in the industry.
