When talking about air and its effects we often talk about air pressure… so what is that?
Air Pressure is the outwards push of air…
for example, the air in a balloon is forced inside when you blow it up, and it’s HIGH PRESSURE makes it push hard to get out.
Air always pushes…
FROM HIGH PRESSURE
TO LOW PRESSURE.
Does Air Pressure change when we fly? You betcha it does!
Thursten, or "Thrust" as he prefers to be called, is our resident technical genius. This is not a term used lightly... he really does have a brain the size of a planet and he solves a myriad of tricky problems for us. Thrust is particularly interested in the science of flight and, unlike many large-brain academics, is very good at explaining science in terms that normal people can understand.
