    To be fair that’s true if you only talk about aerodynamics. But by the same logic helicopters can’t fly either.

        You know what’s dumb about helicopters?

        They could just remove that giant rotating fan above it and put in cockpit air conditioning.

        Think how much quieter and cooler it would be, not to mention the fuel savings!

      It’s true if you only talk about aerodynamics, and also don’t know that air behaves differently on smaller scales and turbulence is really fucking complicated and not yet fully understood.
