I think I've figured it out, winglets are big air-magnets and they draw more air towards them, like a magnet. Anything that looks like part of an aircraft automatically draws air towards it, so this must be how they make lift more better.

Planes fly mostly because aviation sucks. Back when it didnt suck so much, airplanes consumed more runway and fuel. Now they can take off on one engine and stay aloft all day. Another generation of lorenzos will have them floating around like blimps.

My research shows that planes fly based on the same principles as how birds fly; by pushing air downwards. It’s very simple and straight forward.

As the CAA don’t know how planes fly, then logically neither does most instructors & pilots.
I’ve started emailing lawyers representing aviation victims. If the CAA do nothing on this, then one day I hope to present this in a court against the CAA, LAA, FAA, Boeing, Airbus, … or any negligent pilot or flying instructor.

Actually guys, he may be right. Have you ever seen an F-4 Phantom fly? It's amazing that thing even gets in to the air! (apologies to Phantom drivers
