    Airspeed equals ground speed accounted for wind. Altitude and the Earth rotating is never figured in that proves we don't live on a spinning ball.

    At 5' 35", when the image switches from yawed right to yawed left, the yaw string position on the picture doesn't change. Surely it should?

    Does speed decrease if i rise the nose a little bit up not too much?? Does speed remain costant

    • @susieare
      @susieare Год назад

      It does decrease. If you raise the nose too much the wings stop producing lift and you stall.

    • @susieare
      @susieare Год назад

      If you lower the nose the speed of the glider will increase, a long with drag. Eventually you will reach the maximum speed at which its safe to fly the glider.

    a mass of air equal to the mass of the plane is directed down so the plane stays up. An airfoil redirects air well.

    You forgot to mention two major components in gliding. Which are Center of lift and center of gravity.

  • @justsnappy
    @justsnappy 4 года назад

    You basically trade altitude (potential energy) for speed (kinetic energy). You will run out of energy unless you find a thermal or wave to gain more altitude.

  • @stoobydootoo4098
    @stoobydootoo4098 5 лет назад

    I think your high/low pressure theory of how wings produce lift were debunked decades ago. The wing creates a down draft at its rear. So graphic examples of the upper & lower air flows at the rear being parallel to a horizontal surface are incorrect.

      Ailerons are also against the bank at 3:15. Regarding Pedals at 6:27 they show the right direction (bank to the right is right foot pushing the pedal)

  • @JacoKruger.
    @JacoKruger. 5 лет назад

    is there any one out there that can please tell me how the fuck a wing works, i hate that word LIFT, when i look at that flat plate with attack angle then i only see it being PUSHED up from the bottom UP, as every one told me that wings (airfoil) of a plane is shaped that way to create LIFT on top of the wing to LIFT it up, there is a huge difference in LIFTING something and PUSHING something up, so tired of this 2 sided bullshit of who is right and who is wrong

    • @susieare
      @susieare Год назад

      The video us right. The high pressure below the wings surface does push it up, but the low pressure above the wing also effectively sucks it up. It's the pressure differential which is important here.

  • @harveyburton5525
    @harveyburton5525 5 лет назад

    As a glider pilot this is incorrect , thrust is at first created by the launch power , then momentum is just at all times maintained at approx 55 knots . In reality there is still thrust , just using gravity , to create thrust , a force which is present . The only way to increase attitude is by using a thermal or sudden lift

    • @robert100xx
      @robert100xx 5 лет назад

      As a glider pilot you are incorrect, in free gliding flight we ignore the 'momentum ' of the launch. Attitude is altered by the crafts pilot using controls, ALTITUDE is gained, in free gliding flight by outside influences of lift generated by differential solar heating, ie thermals, ridge or hill lift and mountain lee wave systems. The motive power is gravity and the fuel tank is altitude, duration can be extended by soaring.

    • @susieare
      @susieare Год назад

      There is no thrust in free flight.
