Grumble Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 how that thing stay afloat is amazing, it's like planes - i just don't understand how something that big flies?!! (no need to explain the scientific points of this please!) If you remember Bernouill's principle in physics, you'll understand flying. Faster air going over the wing (curved) than under (flat) creates low pressure which sucks the wing up ('lift'). Relies on forward speed, which is why they never stop in mid-air. For long. So now you know, even though you didn't want to... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Survivor Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 If you remember Bernouill's principle in physics, ummm, nopeds - you got me there i'm afraid. Didn't take physics - was probably smoking in the bushes at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
