... Experiment with the Captive plane design. Will it fly without being tethered? Does it require more power to fly? Does a larger wing surface area change how it flies? Try a different shape for your Captive plane e.g. a biplane, a stealth bomber, a flying pig (just to prove that they really can fly!). ...

... and their lower surfaces are flatter. This shape is what works with the fluid motion of the air to create lift. As air moves around a wing, some goes over the top and some goes underneath. The air that goes over the curved upper surface undergoes two important changes: it is reduced in pressure (by ...

Pusher configuration



In a craft with a pusher configuration the propeller(s) are mounted behind their respective engine(s). According to British aviation author Bill Gunston, a ""pusher propeller"" is one mounted behind the engine, so that the drive shaft is in compression.Pusher configuration describes this specific (propeller or ducted fan) thrust device attached to a craft, either aerostat (airship) or aerodyne (aircraft, WIG, paramotor, rotorcraft) or others types such as hovercraft, airboat and propeller-driven snowmobiles.Pusher configuration describes also more commonly the specific layout of a fixed-wing aircraft of which the thrust device has a pusher configuration. This kind of aircraft is commonly named a pusher. Pushers have been designed and built in many different layouts, some of them quite radical.
