Champ wrote Or a liquid. Don't forget the sums from that nice Mr Ben Uley were designed to be applied to British Naval vessels. The lift changes in proportion density of the medium through which the lifting surface is passing, the square of the speed of the medium relative to the lifting surface and the maths involved in the shape of the lifting surface itself,
Blooody hell, I knew the effects of last night's curry were powereful, but I didn't think they'd reach all the way to England. -- _______ ..'_/_|_\_'. Ace (brucedotrogers a.t rochedotcom) \`\ | /`/ GSX-R1000K3 `\\ | //' BOTAFOT#3, SbS#2, UKRMMA#13, DFV#8, SKA#2 `\|/` `

And don't forget - the further up you are the lower the gravity and the less lift is required.. I'm sure that a big-brained type somewhere has a neat and elegant formula that expresses it in a fashaion that similarly big-brained types can find easy to understand. Phil

Istr the first one was in 1930 or thereabouts. Fucking amazing when you think about it... some old stringbag (although pretty good for its day) wheezing its way up and over the highest mountain in the world in a range of bloody high mountains. Not much room for error, mechanical or human.
