Fun little applet from NASA that lets you experiment with different airfoil
shapes and other variables.

Excellent! Thanks for the heads up.

Finally a tool to show students how more lift is made by the low pressure
above the wing than by the high pressure below the wing.

Note: Bernoulli and Newton are two valid interpretations of the same
physical processes.

Here is a good webpage explaining Lift with Downwash/Momentum:

It would be nice but neither the on-line or downloaded versions work on
my computer. The display graphics just do not appear. The box is there
but with no content.
