Regardless of experience level, every pilot must have a working knowledge of the principles of aerodynamics. Included in this knowledge should be an understanding of how angle of attack affects various aspects of flight.
Advanced Aerodynamics - Angle of Attack takes a look at angle of attack and how it affects lift and drag which, in turn, affects aircraft performance. Also included is a discussion on the aerodynamics of a spin.
Subjects included in Advanced Aerodynamics - Angle of Attack: Lift and drag equations Coefficient of lift and drag L/D max The lift and drag curves Various factors that effect lift How the pilot can control lift Factors that influence an aircrafts glide ratio Effects of weight on glide speed Spin considerations
