So, how does a bumble bee fly, aerodynamically speaking?

Hey scrapphreak are you an engineer that blows stuff up or one who makes things? I ask because I was a blows stuff up engineer. lol - I guess you could say it's a little of both. My line of work involves turning mass quantities of chemicals into millions of pounds of hot, flaming thrust to put various objects into orbit or send them to the Moon or Mars.  Sweet, your pay is a lot higher than mine was lol of course my tools and equipment were only hundreds of thousands of dollars not millions and my schoolling was much shorter and cheaper for me.

Lift and thrust over coming Drag and gravity (I forget the exact words). That's basically it, for winged vehicles anyway. So, how does a bumble bee fly, aerodynamically speaking? Way more than I'm willing to type. Let's just say it acts more like a helicopter in how lift and thrust are both generated by the flapping wings moving generally in a figure 8 pattern. Also, scale effects have a LOT to do with how insects "fly". Hey scrapphreak are you an engineer that blows stuff up or one who makes things?

Yeah, I'm still paying student loans 13 years later.  At least the (low) interest is tax deductible.

It took both of my kids YEARS to pay off their loans, but they did. They have a lot to show for it as well!

I feel sorry for your loss of your friend. We also lost ours in September. But looks like you have another good one.
