Have you ever wondered why most commercial jet engines are placed under the wings instead of on the fuselage or the tail? 🤔 It’s not just for looks—there are solid engineering reasons behind this design choice!

🛫 In this video, you’ll learn:

The aerodynamic and structural benefits of under-wing engine placement

How it simplifies maintenance, reduces wing stress, and improves fuel efficiency

Why placing engines under the wing enhances safety, especially during engine failure

Real-world examples and comparisons to other configurations (rear-mounted, over-wing)

How noise reduction, center of gravity, and cost all influence this decision

Whether you're an aviation student, traveler, or engineering geek, this video will give you a whole new appreciation for how aircraft are designed!
