Marine Corps investigators believe last month's MV-22 Osprey crash that killed 19 Marines probably was caused by a loss of aerodynamic lift that forced the aircraft into a fatal nose dive.

The Karman line is therefore the highest altitude at which orbital speed provides sufficient aerodynamic lift to fly in a straight line that doesn't follow the curvature of the Earth's surface.
43.
The relatively low density of hot air reduces aerodynamic lift . As a result, large jets take longer to climb after take-off, exacerbating noise problems in residential areas along flight paths.

Aerodynamic lift involving wings is the most common, with fixed-wing aircraft being kept in the air by the forward movement of wings, and rotorcraft by spinning wing-shaped rotors sometimes called rotary wings.
45.
If the thrust-to-weight ratio is greater than the local gravity strength ( expressed in " g " s ), then flight can occur without any forward motion or any aerodynamic lift being required.
46.
The sails, when correctly adjusted, will generate aerodynamic lift . When sailing downwind, the sails no longer generate aerodynamic lift and airflow is stalled, with the wind push on the sails giving drag only.

Couldn't afford the race-prepared Shelby, so he took a road-ready GT 350, fixed its 600 pounds of aerodynamic lift on the front ( talk about driving a boat ) and beat the hotter cars.
49.
As the boat is going downwind, the apparent wind is less than the true wind and this, allied to the fact that the sails are not producing aerodynamic lift, serves to limit the downwind speed.

Due to the hybrid aerostatic / aerodynamic lift approach, fuel can be expended without entering a state of positive buoyancy that would necessitate routine helium venting in order to land, a costly weakness present upon conventional airships.
