What is relative airflow?
Air moving in the opposite direction of the flight path.
How does relative airflow affect lift and drag?
It defines the AOA
What is the angle of attack?
The angle between the chord line and the relative airflow.
What happens when the angle of attack increases?
Increases lift by pushing more air down, but past the critical angle, airflow separates causing stall and drag
