The wholesomeness is next level; the return to your childhood home, the backyard version of America’s greatest pastime, and the strawberry on top- your reminder of simpler times with the “play until the streetlights came on” nostalgia. And above all else, you’ve rooted that same approach of keeping childhood passions alive, into sharing your passion for engineering with a whole new generation of creative minds (my son & daughter included).

    I was waiting for you to mention the Coanda Effect. For almost a century we were told that wings get their lift from the Bernoulli Effect because they thought the air going over the wing "had a date" with the air that it parted from going under the wing which was a shorter path so the air on top had to go faster creating a low pressure zone. But that's not it. The Coanda effect makes the air going over the top cling to the surface creating the F=MA reaction force upwards. That and "Angle of Attack" of course where the air hits the sloped bottom of the wing which forces the air down with an upwards force reaction. That's why planes can fly upside down.
