Re: Misconceptions: Physics of Flight



Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but ... doesn't the Bernoulli effect
(which I interpret as a statement of energy conservation - just to mix
threads!) apply only to streamlines? The air over the wing and the air
under the wing are represented by separate streamlines.
