Best Answer

Planes stay in flight because of bernoulli's principle. When air passes over a airplanes wing. The air that goes on the top of the wing moves faster than the air the goes on the bottom. Thsi auses a low pressure system above the wing and a high pressure system beneath the wing. The high pressure below the wing pushes the airplane up allowing it to fly.
