How do you make Lift?
Lift
Drag
Bernoulli:
“The faster the air flows over the
surface, the lower the pressure air
exerts on the surface.”

Thrust
Weight
How to Change Lift
• Since Lift is about the same as weight and
weight changes, then must be able to change
lift.
– Increase lift by
• increasing the tilt of the wing
• increasing the speed of the airplane (actually speed
squared)
• decreasing the altitude of the airplane above the
ground.

But there are Limits to Lift
“Stall”
The flow no longer
can stay attached
to the upper
surface.

How to create Thrust
Lift

Thrust
Weight
•A propeller produces thrust like a wing
produces lift except:
• The propeller is a wing rotated 90 degrees
• The speed over the airfoil comes from rotating
the prop.
2-18
How does a jet engine produce thrust?
Propeller (“compressors”)
Propeller (“turbines”)
Fuel Burned
(Generates
high speed air)
A jet engine “sucks, squeezes, burns and blows.”

“Pressure”
Excrescence
Skin Friction
Due to the influence of an airfoil on those outboard
of it
Due to the rapid growth of the boundary layer
Due to roughness, gaps & antennas
Due to the friction in the boundary layer next to the
skin to the air flowing over the skin.
What & Why Trim?Lift
Drag
Trim
Thrust
Weight
• Trim comes from a wing like surface
mounted on the back of the airplane
• To change the tilt of the airplane
– increase down load - airplane nose goes up
– decrease down load - airplane nose goes down

Airplane Stability
A stable system
A stable airplane
Lift
Move the ball away
from the bottom and it
returns to the bottom
Because ball’s center of
gravity is above the
bottom of the bucket
2-23
Weight
Move the nose of the airplane up
and the airplane’s nose will come
back down.
Because airplane’s center of lift is
aft of the center of weight
How does an airplane turn?
It banks.

Why do airplanes have rudders?
To balance an inoperative engine and crosswinds.
