What do you need to know to fly
Notams Wx reports Known ATC delay Runway lengths Alternatives Fuel requirements Takeoff/landing data
Form Drag
landing gear and antennas
drag caused by the separation of the boundary layer from a surface and the wake created by that separation
Skin Friction Drag
screws, seams in the metal
a component of parasitic drag, which is resistant force exerted on an object moving in a fluid
