Title:
Beyond Bernoulli-Understanding the Aerodynamics of Flight
Topic:
Back to the Basics for Aerodynamics
Speaker(s):
Matt Bell, CFI
Brief Description:
Every pilot has some understanding of aerodynamics. But when asked to explain why an airplane stalls, spins, or creates wingtip vortices, sometimes the explanation doesn’t quite take off!
This presentation will explore the why behind some of the most important aerodynamic concepts pilots encounter, taking a deeper dive into lift, drag, stalls, spins, and wingtip vortices.
