Physics on airplanes

But thats basically what wings are

>>8038402
but they arent shaped like that though, and airplanes have to be angled upwards to maintain altitude using a normal wing

using a spoiler will increase lift

>but they arent shaped like that though
The thing you have circled looks like a pretty standard wing from as much as I can see.

>and airplanes have to be angled upwards to maintain altitude
No, they dont?

>>8038422
wings push air downward
Putting a wing like that on a plane would cause shittons of drag.
You don't care about drag on an F1 car since your fucking dead if the car lifts off the ground

>>8038422
Passenger jets at cruising altitude might have to do that, but it certainly isnt universally true of all planes at all altitudes. Ive flown planes, You can maintain altitude with level flight

>>8038433
but you can angle the spoiler so that it doesnt create as much drag

haven't you seen how formula 1 cars work?

>>8038447
but that isnt fuel economic, then you have to travel faster to increase the low pressure over the wing and generate lift

>what are flaps
but then again you're just a shitposting tripfag

because you want to go forward

How do stunt planes fly upside-down then, genius?
