In my simple mind list can only happen if the pressure underneath is greater than the pressure over the top. (Under > over). Maybe it's simplistic but I'm seeing a wing "at rest" as under = over. Is my thinking so far correct?
Assuming a wing moving through the air at X mph, is the air moving under the wing equal to x and the air moving over the wing > x ? Or is it the other way around with the air over the wing equal to x and the air under the wing <x ? I'm assuming the former only because the air under would be relatively flat and the air over being the variable because of the "detour" it has to make over the top to reach the same point on the trailing edge?
Or is that the crux of the nit being picked?
