NASA Bernoulli’s Principle – Museum in a Box

Be careful! Sometimes NASA is wrong. In this document, it claims air moving across the top and bottom of the wing must reach trailing edge of the wing at the same time. This is a very common misconception. See the How Things Fly document from the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum for the real story or watch the Veritasium video How Does A Wing Actually Work?
