Ugghh, these NASA people! First, they tell us Pluto is no longer a planet, and now this!! What should we now teach student pilots on the theory of lift? It appears that the "Long Path" or "Equal Transit" theory is incorrect??
Check out this page from the NASA website and also conduct the experiment given below ... interesting stuff. If you've been teaching the "Equal Transit Theory" or the "
Venturi Effect" theory for explaining "the force of lift" to your students, will you now change after reading this?
