| Induced Drag | Drag created during production of lift |
| Parasite Drag | All drag from sources other than lift production. |
| Angle of Attack | Angle between chord and relative wind |
| Lift | The upward force created by airflow over airfiol |
| Thrust | The forward force that propels the airplane through the air |
| Chord | A straight line for leading to trailing edge |
| Newton's 3rd Law | For every action there is a equal an opposite reaction |
| Airfoil | Any surface which provides aerodynamic force when it interacts with air |
| Critical Angle of attack | The angle of attack where stall begins |
| Camber | The wing curvature |
| Relative Wind | The airflow which is parallel to and opposite the flight path. |
| Stall | Separation of the air from an airfoil |
| Angle of incidence | Angle between the chord and longitudinal axis |
| Boundary Layer | A thin layer of air near the surface of an airfoil. |
| Aspect ratio | Relationship of wing length to width. |
| Weight | Force that opposes lift. |
| Planform | Shape of the wing when viewed from above. |
| Wash Out | Twist of the wing |
