right from what i understood from the brain teaser question about forces on a wing lift come from the pressure difference between the two sides of the wing (faster air on top, u get the picture). i know there are many explenations for lift, but in this one why is it assumed that the air on top of the wing should miraculously increase in speed just because it has further to travel (wrt the air underneath the wing).
