What are some good sites that explain the concept of Airfoils?
I know that there is a good number of people on here that are doing things in school dealing with the automotive industry. I need to write a paper tonight that's all about aerodynamics and for half of the paper, I'm to write about airfoils being used on airplanes, F1 cars, and passenger cars. I've found some sites that were alright, but i figured it couldn't hurt to post up incase any of you that have dealt with this stuff already already know of some good sites that could help out.
Thanks, I appreciate it

This is also a reason that 2 ships traveling at speed cannot run to close together. Bernoulli's principal dictates that they will be sucked in to eachother, and collide. I have seen it in persone, and I can verify that this is very true lol.
