Aerodynamics Of Flight 2 - The Types Of Drag

The second video for my Aerospace series! This video is exclusively on drag, focusing on each of the different types of drag, how it is generated during a flight, and how to minimise them.

Its such a pity you stopped making new videos 😢

There’s also wave drag which arises from shockwaves at transonic and supersonic speeds.

thank you for the video but why did not we take into account the wave drag (results from shock waves)?

Hi Gazi! I did explain wave drag in one of the later videos (planforms) but neglected to talk about it for this video. I'll probably re-upload this video in the future with wave drag added in. Thanks for pointing that out!
