I seem to recall a comment that the wing produces the same lift no matter what the speed. So wouldn't the answer be "both produce the same"? Otherwise you'd be rolling into the turn or away from the turn. Also, this assumes the inner wing is not stalled, which disrupts/kills the lift on that wing.


Even in level, steady flight, there are small differences in each wings lift, especially at slower speeds.   :salute

If a plane is in a steady 45 deg banked level turn to the left.  Which wing is producing more lift. :devil

Left wing.  That is all...

Just reread the posts.  Looks like I'm right.

How do you stay wings level and coordinated while upside down at the top of a loop?
