> lift is created by the low pressure created by the aerofoil…due to one side of the wing being longer than the other… it forces the air to go faster over one section…

Right Bernoullis Principle…

So the low pressure zone is created by air flowing over and under the wing essentially…

So unless there is air moving, over the wing, the plan wont generate lift…

So if the plane isn’t moving, or there isn’t a giant fan blowing air over the wing, it wont gerenate lift…

Fair enough?
