The science of flight is one amazing subject. Even with the skydiving suit, the way the body is positioned is also a determinant of how fast the body will fall that is due to the way air is allowed to flow around the body.
I wouldn't be dropping equations but i'm sure you know what i mean. I guess i would be summoning superman to read this.
cheers!
Lol, the texts are enough, no extra eqn needed... And as you said, streamlining the body to be in a compact shape increases escape velocity while spreading out helps in reducing the speed.....
Hoping to see him here & hopefully he wouldn't scold me for leaking his secrets...
Nice seeing you around!
