Many people believe that planes fly by magic (well, not so many people actually), but the reality is that it’s all based on physics and we’re sure that you, as a loyal reader of our blog, already know this.
In some of our recent posts, we have already talked about key concepts to understand why planes fly: the Venturi effect, Bernoulli’s Principle and even the effect of the g-force when flying a plane.
In today’s post, we are going to talk about lift principle on aircraft and, to do so, it is essential to talk about density: what it is, how it influences lift and what its variability is when planning a flight. Ready? So read on!
