Airplanes alight in the highways of the sky, transforming barriers into opportunities. We do not often think about how we get from one place to another, but flying is a complex task. Training consists of practical learning, but also includes lessons on aerodynamics. What is a pilot without the knowledge of how a plane stays in the air? "How Airplanes Fly," breaks down aerodynamics explaining how the motions of air, and other forces relate to the mechanics of an airplane in flight. Understanding aerodynamics is essential for pilots, so they can relate lift to velocity, pressure, density and temperature. Clear language and compelling examples answer the pivotal question all potential pilots should ask: how do airplanes fly?
