The 32 pages that link to Lift (force), each with the reason it gives.

• Bird flightRelated: Bird wings must generate enough lift to balance weight.

• Wing loadingRelated: Wings must generate enough lift to support the mass represented in wing loading.

• Angle of attackRelated: Increasing angle of attack usually increases lift until airflow separation disrupts the trend.

• HelicopterRelated: A helicopter’s rotor produces the upward force needed to support its weight.

• AirfoilRelated: Pressure differences and momentum changes around an airfoil produce lift.

• Wind tunnelRelated: Tunnel tests measure how a model's shape and attitude generate lift.

• Gliding flightRelated: Lift counters gravity and slows the loss of height during a glide.

• Fixed-wing aircraftRelated: Air flowing around the wings creates the upward force that supports the aircraft.

• Wright FlyerRelated: The Flyer’s wings had to generate enough lift to support its weight.

• WingRelated: A wing’s primary function is to generate lift to support an aircraft.

• Powered flightRelated: Powered flight requires lift to counter gravity and keep the animal airborne.

• PropellerRelated: The rotating blades’ aerodynamic forces combine to produce axial thrust.

• Automotive aerodynamicsRelated: Vehicle lift can reduce tire loading and impair high-speed stability.

• George CayleyRelated: Cayley identified lift as a distinct force that a wing must generate to support flight.

• Wilbur WrightRelated: The Wrights tested wing shapes and angles to generate enough lift for controlled flight.

• Canard (aeronautics)Related: The forward surface may carry part of the aircraft’s weight through lift.

• PatagiumRelated: A patagium’s shape and airflow help generate the force that keeps an animal aloft.

• Jet aircraftRelated: Wings generate the upward force that supports a jet aircraft in flight.

• AeronauticsRelated: Lift supports an aircraft's weight when its aerodynamic force is sufficient.

• AirplaneRelated: Airplane wings generate lift that counteracts the aircraft’s weight.

• Paul CornuRelated: Cornu’s brief ascent depended on generating enough rotor lift to raise the machine and pilot.

• Abbas ibn FirnasRelated: A successful glide requires enough lift to counter the aircraft’s weight.

• Percy PilcherRelated: Pilcher’s experiments sought to produce enough lift for sustained gliding.

• Flying and gliding animalsRelated: Wings generate lift by redirecting airflow as animals fly or glide.
