@joesephbeckmann: Vx and Vy. This is why Vy gets you to altitude quicker than Vx even though Vy has a lower angle of attack. I had some student pilots reaching out to me from my last post about the difference between the two 🫡 I’m also launching a student pilot community where I’ll be hosting live grounds every week. Send me a DM for more info.
Definitely the clearest explanation of this that I have seen. I love your videos, keep them coming please good sir!

BuddyB :
So although Vx is at a higher AOA, the increased induce drag and slower airspeed causes to reach altitude slower than Vy? So vx is more efficient when in need to clear obstacle while Vy is more effiecient over time

I don’t think increased drag is the sole factor, here.
