How Planes Fly: a live 3D blueprint book with 10 interactive lessons goes live
techartist_ · x · 2026-11-16
The full live book is up: How Planes Fly presents flight physics as a blueprint book where every drawing is a working model. Ten lessons cover the four forces, lift in a smoke tunnel, tilt and stall, takeoff, drag and wingtip vortices, propellers and jets, banking turns, gliding, why jets cruise at 11 km where contrails form, and Mach 1 with a schlieren shockwave card — each with self-check questions. Live 3D rendering in the browser, built with Opus 5.5 + Blender + Three.js.
