Lift Survey
I'm doing a survey about pilot perceptions on various aviation concepts. First on the list is lift....
Please answer the questions to the best of your knowledge, based on what you have read and/or you have learned from your flight instructor(s).
Select only one answer for each question, unless otherwise noted.
1. Lift is best explained by:
a. Bernoulli’s equation (pressure differential between top and bottom of wing)
b. Newton’s laws (equal and opposite reaction)
c. Some lift is created via Bernoulli’s equation; some is created via Newton’s laws
d. Either Bernoulli’s or Newton’s can be used to explain total lift production
