: Dave,
: Here is the link I was searching for yesterday. Jef Raskin and the
: coanda effect. It is the best I have seen on the topic and
: useful for understanding more than just rudders, skegs, and
: foils.
: http://karmak.org/archive/2003/02/coanda_effect.html

: A bit off topic but Jef was employee #31 at Apple and key in the
: Macintosh project.

Good link Reg :)

We could get way off the topic here and it might be fun, but it's totally unrelated so I won't go there :)

That said, there are many ways that lift is formed from a foil, depending on shape, much of that was said in your original link.
