I cant recall being involved with your lift theory thread. The fact is
that a pilot ( at least a private pilot *anyway ) really doesnt need
to know whether its Benoulli or Newton at work. What he really needs
to understand is the concept of angle of attack and the need to keep
his wings clean. *If you have studied lift theory in detail you
probably know more about it than a lot of *pilots, including myself
Good Luck wtih your Flying

Grieft. If everyone here were 1/4 as polite as you....sigh.
