Script Details
We’ve learned a lot about the principles of flight since these early attempts to defy gravity. (aside: don’t try this at home!)
It’s not enough to get off the ground, you have to stay up, and let’s not forget the importance of a smooth landing!
Much of what we know about flight comes from birds, who make it look so easy.
How do they do it?
This Arkansas resident is typical of most of its feathered friends. It’s a red-tailed hawk.
Notice the shape of this bird’s wing. The leading edge is thick and rounded, while the trailing edge is thin.
As she flies through the air, her wings split the air into two streams. One stream passes over the tops of the wings, the other below, and the two streams meet up again at the wings’ trailing edges.
Because a bird’s wings are curved the air molecules in the stream on top have farther to go to meet up with the air passing under the wings.
This difference in distance has the marvelous effect of pulling the wings up… like this….
The air on top races to meet the air stream passing underneath. As the air molecules on top move faster, they spread out.
With fewer air molecules above the wing, there is less air pressure above than there is below.
