Why do passing trucks suck instead of blow?
Nope, it's not the first line of a joke or a rhetorical question. I would expect a passing truck or bus to be pushing a wave of high pressure air in front and beside, but I've noticed time and agai...

Forgetting all about the many variables for this academic airfoil discussion...
The 'tube' is in this case is not symmetrical, nor is it smoothed surfaces,
nor it with both/all sides at the same speed relative to each other *AND*
the surrounding surfaces (pavement), nor is this a designed airfoil, nor
are the two surfaces attached to the same mass, nor does all of the examples
while in school...or current examples have pivot(s) on the surfaces in question,
and a big etc
*IF* one was to take the airfoil example, then go there to then ask which
one has more surface and mass
Which one has the better shape to create lift?...like these examples:
airfoil airfoils airfoilexample
