I have applied to do Aviation, i need to know physics too, please help?

I have never done physics in High School before, i am going to go on a physics and maths course at a college for 6 months before i start university, how important is physics and the aviation course?

      You can probably learn to fly a plane without knowing any physics (6-year-olds can fly), but I imagine someday it will come in handy to know HOW a plane stays in the air.

      I assume that aviation course implies learning to pilot airplanes. While the course will mostly be practical and technical in nature, a background in Physics would certainly help you to comprehend the technicalities involved, even better.

      very, also mechanical,electrical and electronics (no, they are not the same thing) aerodynamics. all these things tie together to form a operating package. knowledge is an accumulative thing. what you might learn in one discipline has value in another. good luck and stay with it .

      You’ll need some physics to do the theory.

      Simple airflow over the wing - see “Bernoulli’s Principle” and maybe look up
      Think it is reasonably simple as intro.
      Best of luck!

      Knowledge of Physics can enhance your flying, but it is not absolutely essential. What you need to know will come to you as you fly in a less intimidating manner.

      You will learn to respect gravity, get to know Newton’s laws, meet Bernoulli, study a bit of thermodynamics and so on. But then it is so much fun learning it in a practical way!
