All planes need air pressure under their wings to stay up in the air. Asthey move
forward, the higher air pressure underneath their wings pushed them upward and gives
them lift.

The smooth, streamlined shape of the plane allows the air to flow easily over its
surface. This helps to reduce the drag caused by the air pushing against the plane and
allows it to move rapidly through the air.
 Planes move forward using engines. This movement is called thrust. Moving forward
keeps a stream of moving air passing over the wings. If the engines fail, the plane will
begin to descend very quickly.

The air above the wing moves faster, so it is at a lower pressure than the air under the
wing The air under the wing moves more slowly and is slightly squashed, so it is at a
higher pressure than the air above the wing
