    Great job explaining the thrust component of the winglet!

    That video/explanation was the best yet😅 the bit I didn't expect was the winglet can produce thrust, many thanks to the Author 💙 love the way you explain things, might stop watching now and let that knowledge sink in 🛩️ lol

    Excellent video. Greatly appreciated. If you have time; how about an IFR cross country planning video with the a cx-3 flight computer.

    Have any videos on landing gear? Especially the folding kind...

    Both (1) vortex drag and (2) viscous drag associated with increased AOA (plus drag penalty due to the lift vector deviating from the vertical axis) are components of induced drag. The way you describe it, you make it sound like they're the exact same thing. They're not.
    Also: both (1) airfoil profile and AOA and (2) pressure exchange around the wingtips (vortex generation) contribute to downwash - but these are also two separate things!

      What you said just helped me clear up my understanding, and confirmed things I suspected😅 cheers man

    Ah, you are contributing to the misinformation. Induced drag depends on 2 things only: how much lift the wing is creating and how much the air is perturbed by the wing in order to create that lift.
    Usually how much lift is created depends on the weight of the aircraft, so less weight results directly in less induced drag.
    Perturbed air left behind the aircraft is lost energy, so less perturbed air means less induced drag. Longer wings and higher speed means the wings are acting on a larger quantity of air, the air is perturbed less, less energy lost in the wake, meaning less induced drag. In conclusion, less weight, longer span, and higher speeds are all contributors to less induced drag.

      Hi. Why longer wings and high velocity perturbes less air
