Описание к видео What is Ground Effect? | Impact on Aircraft & Helicopters | Understanding Downwash & Induced Drag |

Hi! In this video we look at what is Ground Effect and its impact on Aircraft and Helicopters.
When an aircraft or helicopter is close to the ground during takeoff or landing, more lift is created on the wings or on the main rotor. This is because of a reduction in the wing tip vortices which has an impact on the downwash at the training edge of the wings.
These factors come together to improve the lift on the aircraft and helicopter.
What could go wrong because of this? Watch to find out!
