If you aren't using Kutta–Joukowski, then you are just making noise
about lift. See these articles. They will allow you to actually
calculate the lift !

Naw, they'll allow me to calculate the 2-D circulation, which I really
don't care about. And even DB has a finite wingspan :-).

You can't calculate the lift without the circulation :-)

Based on the mass of my glider, I know the lift!


Pilots should not be allowed to discuss aerodynamics without a
license !



How come you're not at R3?

Currently I am too poor.

Which just goes to show what we as pilots knew all along: it's the
circulation of *money* that creates lift :-).

Here's wishing you more of that.

Thanks for the Wiki links btw.
