The part of the wing that resembles a thigh is called the "drumstick." It is the meaty portion of the wing, located between the wing tip and the wing's joint that connects to the body. This section contains more muscle and is typically juicier and more flavorful than other parts of the wing, making it a popular choice for many chicken wing dishes.

Can anyone identify a flintlock shotgun maker mark that looks like a bee with the letter G in the left wing and L in the right?

I'm having the same problem, if you wan't to discuss my email is willphil@telus.net.


Does the shape of a plane wing affect the flight?

Yes, wing shape is important for several reasons: If the shape is wrong, then the air flow will peel loose from the wing's upper surface. If this happens, then the air flow becomes turbulent, and the wing can no longer deflect the air. This is called "STALL." So the shape of the wing is important in preventing stall. If a wing was flat like a board, it would work fine as long as it wasn't tilted. If tilted, the air flow peels loose from the leading edge, and Stall is created. But it MUST be tilted in order to create lift. The solution is simple: make the leading edge round, and the trailing edge sharp. An airfoil must be shaped like a streamlined teardrop. That way it can be tilted, and the air still flows smoothly around the leading edge. Stall is prevented. To deflect air and provide lift, the trailing edge of the wing must tilt down. We could tilt the whole wing. But if the wing angle is too steep, the air flow will not follow the wing surface. The wing will "stall." But when flying slowly, less air gets deflected, so the wing must be tilted more. Doesn't this mean that large heavy airplanes can't fly? Would their wings tilt too much, then stall? No, because wings can have an arch shape or cup shape. If a wing is humped up in the center, then it will smoothly deflect air, and stalls are prevented. This shape is called "airfoil camber." A heavy slow plane needs a highly cambered wing. A fast small plane needs a wing which is almost flat. The side view of airplane wings looks like a bent teardrop shape, with a round front and a sharp back. WARNING: some people will tell you that a wing must be curved on top and flat on the bottom. This is wrong. The curves don't matter at all. Instead, the front edge of a wing must be round, and the wing must be cambered (curved.) Some high-lift wings are so cambered that the bottom is not flat at all, instead it arches inwards.


What is a chord of the plane wing?

A chord of a plane wing is the straight line segment that connects the leading edge (the front) and the trailing edge (the back) of the wing. It represents the width of the wing at a specific cross-section and is a critical measurement in aerodynamics, as it influences the wing's lift and drag characteristics. The chord length can vary along the span of the wing, contributing to different aerodynamic properties across the wing's surface.


How do planes stay in the air?

As an aircraft's wing moves through the air at speed the air on top of the wing is forced to follow a longer path than the air moving underneath the wing [due to the spahe of the wing] This reduces air pressure on the upper surface of the wing and creates lift.


How does an airplane stay up in the air?

Winglift.Lift is pressure on the wing due differential air pressure below and above wing. This difference results from the difference in curvature of the wing top and bottom..
