A factual title for this thread would be, the bernoulli effect isn't the only contributer to a plane flying.
However, it does not change that the bernoulli effect DOES contribute to a plane flying, so it not a MYTH. The fact that the OP has difficutly picturing it is not uncommon, may people have problems with the principal the the FASTER something moves, the less pressure it has, it seems contradictory. However, the speed of the plane, in combination with the redirection of air downward + decreased pressure above it causes it to lift.
If the bernoulli effect was A MYTH, it would take far more power then what is used to lift standard designed aircraft into the air.
