Default visualisation of the lift distribution over a wing

Anyone who thinks that the pressure of a fluid on a surface can act in
any direction but towards the surface is simply wrong.


I see. You are not lookng at the wing as a system, but taking an
observation at one point only, without reguard to what is happening around
it.

Point made.
