DEBUNKING SILLY LIFT THEORIES

Hi all, I am sure many of you are probably sick of this topic but I still run across far too many people who spout nonsense about how wings work and lots of them are flying instructors- some are even airline pilots..






I have spent the last 3 years lecturing Aero at University and have to take a lot of my time undoing this nonsense. Our young aviators deserve better than this. Even CASA spouts nonsense about venturis.




I would really appreciate any help in spreading the work here. We are talking physics not fairy tales. Please look a these links as circulate them for information. Incorrect Lift Theory How wings really work | University of Cambridge DEBUNKING LIFT 'THEORIES' STILL TAUGHT | Recreational Flying We don't do ourselves or our industry any favours if we don't understand the most basic concepts of our profession. Cheers
