Airfoil - ANSWER is a structure or body which produces a useful reaction to air movement. Airplane wings, helicopter rotor blades and propellers are airfoils. Chord Line - ANSWER is an imaginary straight line from the leading edge to the trailing edge of an airfoil. Changing the shape of an airfoil will change the chord line relative wind - ANSWER is the wind relative to the airfoil. it is created by the movement of air past an airfoil, by the motion of an airfoil through the air, or b
