Hi Chris
Here is my favorite site
A beginners Guide to Aeronautics from a wind tunnel expert with
experience as a high school science teacher...he knows his stuff and he
knows how to teach it.
http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/airplane/index.html
By the way nature's aerodynamics is the most complicated of all,
I start with paper airplanes and work up to real airplanes then finish
with nature.
