aerofoil Quick reference
A Dictionary of Mechanical Engineering (2 ed.)
...gives rise to lower pressures on one surface ( suction surface ) compared with the other ( pressure surface ) when moving through a fluid. The leading edge is the front part of an aerofoil about which an oncoming flow divides, while the trailing edge is the rear edge. The camber line is a curve constructed midway between the upper and lower surfaces of an aerofoil, while the chord line ( chord ) is a straight line between the leading and trailing edges, the length of which is termed the chord length .
