Jan 22, 2018 at 19:01 comment added Sanchises @D.W. Yes, that's what I meant. But answering how lift works is way outside the scope of this question.
Jan 22, 2018 at 18:46 comment added D.W. "and consequently the lift" - did you mean "and consequently the lift increases"? is a word missing here? It might also help to explain why increasing the angle of attack increases the lift.
Jan 22, 2018 at 8:22 comment added Sanchises @hydev For most aerodynamic principles, you don't need complicated mathematics to understand them. The most important point is that the wings generate the majority of the lift, and the controls just point the wing (and consequently, the lift force) in a certain direction.
