2020-02-01 | No One Can Explain Why Planes Stay in the Air - Scientific American

'Air molecules flowing atop a wing do not behave like that, but Bernoulli’s theorem does not say why not. '

'Although it is a fact of experience that air moves faster across a curved surface, Bernoulli’s theorem alone does not explain why this is so. '

'This means that Bernoulli’s theorem alone is insufficient to explain these facts. '

'Nevertheless, there are several reasons that Bernoulli’s theorem does not by itself constitute a complete explanation of lift. '

'In other words, the theorem does not say how the higher velocity above the wing came about to begin with. '
