Flight - Lesson 5
OUTCOME
By the end of the lesson you will investigate the manipulation of the surface of the craft to control .
Look at the way the smoke lines react to the change in camber of the aerofoil. How does this change the lift on the wing?
There are lots of ways to control flight and all are necessary in order to have a flight go smoothly.
Investigate one of the flaps, and explain using bernoulli's effect or angle of attack how the trajectory of the craft is altered.
