Let Me Throw You a Curve: How a Wing Produces Lift

How does a wing generate lift? It's all about bending the air. That's right. Bend the air and something amazing happens. That amazing thing is called "lift." Much like the judo master who's an expert at bending people, the wing is an excellent tool for bending air. Here's a simple yet accurate representation of how a wing develops lift. This presentation covers both the tangential and normal acceleration of the airstream without once mentioning those two terms.

That suggests that there is no one "right way" to describe how lift occurs. After all, many of these videos offering different explanations for lift are made by people with impressive academic credentials who've spent their entire lives studying the subject. Yet, their explanations for lift are sometimes wildly different. This "difference" in explanations is the important message here. That message is, "There is no one correct way to explain how lift occurs because lift is a very complex phenomenon." The best any instructor can do is to offer an explanation that comports with scientific principles and allows students to use this explanation to better understand how to fly an airplane.
