Air Flow wing lift explained

It’s all smoke. No mirrors. I have to be honest, I didn’t think it was one side is faster OR low air pressure, I thought it had to do with vortices and lift. Anyhow, this explanation helps me think about this physical process we all sort of take for granted. Damn, if only there were some physics majors around.

    It seems like once a year I read/see something that says “no, they’re wrong, in fact here’s how wings work.”

    All I know is that they make me fly, and that is good.
