That's incomplete though; an asymmetric airfoil with 0° angle of attack does generate lift. The problem is the "equal times" -- the times are not "equal", but the air passing over the curved side does go faster.
- FabHK 2y agoSure. By deflecting the air down. > Cambered airfoils generate lift at zero angle of attack. When the chord line is horizontal, the trailing edge has a downward direction and since the air follows the trailing edge it is deflected downward.
