Default aerodynamics of gliding

You guys have proven 2 fundamental truths.

1) In any engineering discussion. If you don't define terms at the
start, you just chase yourself around in a circle.

2) Pilots don't need to know much about aerodyanmics to fly well.

Oh yeah,

3) Flight instructors explain these things more to make a point than
to be accurate :-)
