about how aircraft fly

Ah...well...I am not a deviation expert or anything so I can't give you too much of an explanation, but I will give you what I can. From what I have at least read about a plane is built somewhat similar to a bird, where the tail of the plane and the front of the plane have a comparison to say afloat. Then there is also wind currents and fans on the plane depending on the type and model. Finally, there has to always be an equilibrium point or congruent match to help keep the plane going straight, because if it wasn't then it would be having turbulence or such.

I agree that it is rather amazing that several tons of metal, people and baggage can get off the ground and stay up. It's all to do with the way that air flows over the wings. The top surface of the wing is curved, so the air flowing over it has further to go, which reduces the pressure over the wing. Under the wing, the pressure is greater than over it, so the air under the wing can lift the plane. Naturally, the faster the plane is travelling, the greater the lift generated and there is a minimum speed (called the stalling speed) below which the plane cannot fly or take off.

As another poster pointed out air has further to travel over the top of a wing than underneath it creating lift which basically pulls the wings up, and sicne the wings are attached to the rest of the plane it gets lifted up as well. Thanks to Newton's three laws of motion we know that you don't need to create a lot of lift in order to stay airborn, you just need to keep the lift greater than the downward pull of gravity which does not increase as you get higher. To change the amount of lift they use the flaps at the rear of the wings to change how much of a difference there is between the air traveling over the wing and under it.

Simple white petroleum haha...white petroleum is very light in air and if it is kept without any closed lid then it will get evaporated within no time. So, only it is used as fuel in aeroplanes. You see it is like bird, infact the invention of aeroplane was made by watching a bird. so, the power is fuel and the wings it has which makes it to fly so high and reaches the target sooner.

It is completely depends on the bernoulies principle.The from part of the wing contains movable shifts.During the take off the air flows below wing and it makes the aeroplane moves up.The power engines under the wings provides much powerful wind so that the aeroplane can lift easily.The wing part will be semi oval ,front part will have more width and it reduces alongs its length and becomes very thin at the last.The same case applies to landing ,the moves in position so the air flows on top of the wing and makes it comfortable for landing.ANd in the air the total tail part takes the lead role.

in simple terms, an aeroplane needs to balance four forces in order to fly. the four are Thrust, Drag, Weight and Lift. to stay on air, thrust must be more than drag and lift generated must overdo the gravitational force, weight.
