Comment on Where did the false "equal transit-time" explanation of lift originate from?

Comments

That isn’t the equal transit time explanation and the information on nasa.gov doesn’t look wrong to me. It’s entirely consistent with the Babinsky “How wings really work” video and experiment shown in a sibling post.

NASA.gov has multiple pages on lift. Maybe one will explain it accurately.
