Why does Maneuvering Speed increase with weight?!
Asked by: Nerissa Alikaii 27079 views Aerodynamics
Not an ERAU aeronautical engineering grad, but I'd like to think I know the basics :) Just can't wrap my brain around how a heavier airplane can maneuver faster - and more safely - than a lighter one? By that rationale, a cement truck can corner faster than a Honda Accord ... Can anyone help with this?
