Anyone that thinks lift is not associated with Bernoulli's principle should read section 3.



There is lots of faulty information floating around.
Example: AOPA's "Flight Training" magazine, issue 05.11 (current), page 13, "Dihedral".

The dihedral effect is easy to understand when you think of an airplane in a bank. Imagine you are flying a left turn. Because both wings are bolted onto the fuselage at an angle, the left wing will have a higher angle of attack than the right wing. And as a result it will be producing more lift.
