I flew for the first time on a plane last week and I’ve seen planes take off at the airport. It looks crazy. But being on one is totally different like holy shit. The thing just FLIES. It just… Soars… Through the sky! Like whoa man. Wtf… It’s crazy. With how much these things weigh, it’s insane to me the thing can just go up and bam, there we are, we’re flying now. Like wow… Dude crazy.

      I just want to tell the void that I arrived at a similar conclusion about induced high and low pressure zones based on the wing “slicing” the air in half as if it was a continuous material causing cavitation above the wing, and was mocked for it.
