Teaching Aerodynamics
Outline:
Teaching Aerodynamics Part Two:
Objective:
To understand the aerodynamic concepts of how an airplane can overcome its own weight and to understand how resistance to its movement is generated and managed.
Motivation:
An airplane must overcome its weight to fly and must be able to move through the air in order to do it. An understanding of these aerodynamic concepts/forces allow the pilot to understand how to anticipate and manage these forces.
Learn how to correctly explain Aerodynamics.
