Apparently. Not that I know either way.
- QuantumGood 1y agoAll things that create lift, lift the wings—and you need them all for efficient flight. The Bernoulli effect is one thing, but does not produce the main lift force in many circumstances.
- wongarsu 1y agoAircraft with symmetrical wings fly just fine, and most aircraft can fly upside down. So you don't need the Bernoulli effect. Exploiting all the effects gives you more efficient planes though
