HI YA'LL
iI will stick 2 cents worth in here which could benfit the thinking.
It would do well to go back to basics for clarification.
Aerodynamics is the reaction and forces created by an aircraft
MOVING through air, those last words are the clue.
The craft can be traveling through the air in ANY direction,aerodynamics is there no matter the attitude.
Upright or inverted for example is only the pilot's perception, the
craft itself does not care what it's attitude is, could be knif edge
as far as aerodynamics is concerned.
Gravity and thrust are the only non-aerodynamic forces. Thrust
is fixed' The gravity force vector constantly changes as the craft's
attitude changes. The magnitude of the force is constant.
Bottom line? An aerodynamic reaction or force application remains the same no matter the craft's attitude.
Does this simplify thinking?
Be good,
