Flight is a relatively simple and widely studied phenomenon. As surprising as it may sound, though, it is more often than not misunderstood. For example, most descriptions of the physics of lift fixate on the shape of the wing (i.e., airfoil) as the key factor in understanding lift. The wings in these descriptions have a bulge on the top so that the air must travel farther over the top than under the wing. Yet we all know that wings fly quite well upside down, where the shape of the wing is inverted. This is demonstrated by the Thunderbirds in Figure I.1, with wings of almost no thickness at all. To cover for this paradox, we sometimes see a description for inverted flight that is different than for normal flight. In reality, the shape of the wing has little to do with how lift is generated, and any description that relies on the shape of the wing is misleading at best. This assertion will be discussed in detail in Chapter 1. It should be noted that the shape of the wing does has everything to do with the efficiency of the wing at cruise speeds and with stall characteristics.
