Rules to play Kite Flying

A kite is an aircraft consisting of one or more wings tethered to an anchor system.

Frequently a wing of a kite is referenced as "kite". The necessary lift that sustains the kite in flight is generated when air flows above the kite's surface, producing low pressure above and high pressure below the wings. The interaction with the wind also generates horizontal drag along the direction of the wind.

The resultant force vector from the lift and drag force components is opposed by the tension of one or more of the lines or tethers to which the kite is attached.

The anchor point of the kite line may be static or moving.
