Theory of Flight

The four forces acting on an aircraft are...

• Pitch, Yaw, Roll, Drop

• Lift, Weight, Drag, Thrust

• Up, Down, Left, Right

• Rise, Push, Reverse, Down

Check off the Newton laws

• For every action there's an equal and opposite reaction

•  $E=mc^2$  

•  $F=ma$  

• To be or not to be
