Vortices

Idea

A vortex always forms when something passes through a liquid or gas. There are three vortices concepts associated with flight:

• The "starting vortex" that leaves the wing.
• The "bound vortex" that sticks to the top of the wing.
• One that comes off the wingwikipedia:Wingtip_vortices tips.

The goal is to show these using a fog machine and small hand thrown airplanes and/or wind tunnel.
