The airplane or wing designer seeks to harness the pressure forces associated with the motion of air. These have important consequences for the operation of an airplane in flight because the forces on it must be balanced and flight should be stable. We examine the various descriptive pressures that are relevant and look at airfoilAirfoil and wing data that is displayed as clean and compact. We introduce yet another consequence of the nature of vorticityVorticity associated with lift, namely drag that is associated with the trailing vortexVortex system. The discussion is concluded with thoughts about how the pilot of an airplane thinks about speed.
