À propos de cet audio

In this episode of Propeller Breeze, we go beyond straight-and-level to explore how aerodynamic forces shape the way aircraft turn, climb, and descend. Ever wonder why you need to bank to make a proper turn—or how changing your angle of attack affects altitude during a maneuver? We break down the essential principles behind:

✈️ The mechanics of turning: lift components, centrifugal force, and the real role of the rudder
📈 What’s really happening during a climb—and why your engine needs to work harder
📉 Why descents can speed you up even with the throttle pulled back
⚖️ How airspeed, bank angle, and drag all tug-of-war in dynamic flight

Whether you're in flight training, back in the sim, or just love learning how planes really move, this episode will sharpen your understanding of what’s happening behind the yoke. Let’s break down the forces that keep your wings working in three dimensions.
