The aerodynamic drag will decrease by a factor of 1/2 if the air density decreases by half. The center of pressure of a wing will shift aft as the angle of attack increases. The boundary layer of a wing is caused by a layer on the wing in which the stream velocity is lower than the free stream velocity, due to friction. True airspeed is lower than indicated airspeed at altitudes below sea level. The aerodynamic drag of a body depends on factors including the airstream velocity and specific mass of the body.
