About this listen
You’ve probably heard “lift opposes weight”—but that’s just the beginning. In this episode, we break down the aerodynamic forces that actually keep your airplane flying: lift, weight, thrust, and drag. From parasite and induced drag to ground effect and wingtip vortices, we’ll uncover why slower airspeed means more induced drag, how angle of attack beats speed every time, and what happens when you leave ground effect too early. Plus, we tackle left-turning tendencies and the secrets behind propeller torque.
✈️ Understand the forces—fly with purpose.
