The cooler air, because of its greater density, settles close to the ground, and the ...

First, addressing the where to go issue. The graduating class of 2002 at the Air Force Academy had 584 (or so) people physically qualified for pilot training and that wanted to go.

This air moving over the wings lowers the plane's minimum takeoff ...
