This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - How an airfoil's shape with a curved upper surface and flatter lower surface is essential for generating lift. - The application of Bernoulli's principle, where faster airflow over the top of the wing creates lower pressure, resulting in an upward force. - The definition of Angle of Attack (AOA) as the critical angle between the wing's chord line and the oncoming relative wind. - How to identify the critical AOA, the point beyond which increasing the AOA will not create more lift but will instead induce a stall. - The nature of an aerodynamic stall as a separation of airflow from the wing's surface, which is unrelated to engine failure.
