What is Drag? 

The point where induced drag and parasite drag meet, suggests that Induced drag equals Parasite drag at that point. It is also known as Vmd, (airspeed at which the total drag is minimum and the aircraft can glide at its best efficiency) any change in the airspeed or AOA at Vmd, will result in the increase of Total drag. Hence Vmd is always achieved at the optimum angle of attack, that is 4°.

Simple and straight to the point. Good show!

Searched for ages but this is the only channel that provided a proper series on aviation. Thank you very much and good luck!

The point at which the two drag curves are at their lowest represents the Vimd (velocity indicated minimum drag).

Amazing, your video is very helpful. Hope to see more videos from your channel. Keep it up 👍

LDmax, or also called the best Glide speed. Creates greatest amout of lift with the least amount of drag.

Today is my daughter's 22nd birthday. I haven't seen her since 2017.

Very informative! Thanks very much!

Fast, easy, simple, great vid!

It's known as the velocity for best lift versus drag or "best lift/drag ratio". This particular speed will permit the optimum endurance of the aircraft. Particularly important for glider pilots.🙂

thank you for making this video.

beautiful explanations as always but i suggest if the background music can be reduced. thank you

Thanks again for another great video.

Your videos are so helpful to understand the mechanism pf aviation One request please I don't know if this request is ok or not You decide I request you to make proper series on jet fighter planes , their changes in structure over time and how they are different than commercial plane

What happens on the back of the wing when the low pressure flow meets the high pressure flow???

Vmd - minimum drag speed

Best Glide/ Minimum drag

Do they, so educational

Is it the best glide speed?

i subbed too

Means the airspeed which produce the lowest drag, it means the most energy efficient airspeed

What is the name of music added to the video?

You CRAZY AS A FRICKIN LOON if you think you're going to drag me around today. I'll grab some popcorn tho and watch the show later on. ZAP FULL FORCE.

Perfect Vid : )

Now I understand total concept, in aerospace class all got beyond brain 😀.

when extending flaps, Induced drag or parasite drag increases??

that meet point indicates minimum drag point . am i right ?

You are doing a great job but It would be better to reduce the background sound. it reduces the effectiveness of video.

this helped alot thx

Total Drag and can you give the relation between airspeed and parasitic air drag

Am I right to assume that the deflected airflow that partly makes the average local airflow would be the downwash??

Still i am not understanding 😔

Minimum drag speed Vmd

hie was trying to access your website but its says service unavailable. Would really like to have a link to your webpage, if you could please add it here. thanks

Lift to drag ratio, total drag, the minimum amount of drag acting on the aircraft

The background music is too high so i can't even understand some words. And please talk slowly. Your videos are very helpful for me but please improve the thing what i told just a min before. Thank you

minimum drag

The background noise/music is not necessary. Otherwise good video!

Vmd (Minimum Drag Speed)

The two points that meet in the middle is called what is known to be total drag. Total drag is made up of both induced and parasite drag.

I am preparing for the aerospace engineering please guide me that which sub i should focus more. Please make some videos on that.... Please guide.....

flight-club isn't the drag proportional to the air speed? Drag = 1/2 x Coeff x density x V^2 x A. How come the drag decrease with higher speed?

VG

LD Max

vmd

VIMD

min Tr

Please lose the music, so distractive! Otherwise very informative lecture(s)

Oh. This is not the drag I was looking for. Byyyyeeee!

background music irrrrrrrritates

daaaamn another hundreds of unmemorised atpl questions.
