RE: Who Says You Cannot Build Your Own Airplane? Series #12: Understanding Aerospace & Aeronautical Engineering And The Careers

Yo T! What took you so long man? You said its been a week, true but it felt like a month bro. The airfoil concept is amazing as I saw it on BBC sometime ago saying airfoils are basically any "surface" that helps produce lift. Any surface I repeat- like you can make an airfoil out of cardboard paper for a miniature airplane. How cool is that!

Highly! I'm glad you are so interested in this and that you are following the series. However, things are more complicated than that. Researchers are working on getting faster vehicles than what we already have. And like I said earlier, the higher the speed, the more challenges engineers face. There's more to flight than just the airfoil.

Thank you for following once again, @moshroom.
