Essentially that aerodynamic forces are typically so great compared to the force of gravity that nothing like this can work. And another way in which situations of ships and aircraft are completely different. However, this seems to overlook the fact that gravity is non-zero, and ALWAYS points in one direction, i.e. perfectly perpendicular to the horizon. See my "extreme scenario" (in the question). | |
