Subject: RE: ? about that Lear jet crash.


South Central Illinois

The shape of the wing has everything to do with lift.
2/3 of the lift comes from the vacuum on the top side of the wing.
1/3 of the lift comes from the air pressure below the wing.
Is this correct?
Ice on the wing changes that shape.
Too much ice and all of a sudden lift is lost and it drops like a rock.
High speed at high altitude is much more difficult to recover from compared to low speed at low altitude?….
Seems counterintuitive to me.
What do I know about it?
This is just what the TV tells us.
