Best Answer

An airplane is a machine used to fly. An airplane uses it's engine to produce thrust to move the aircraft. When an airplane takes off the engine(s) push the aircraft faster and faster. At a certain speed there is enough air flowing over the wings at a high enough speed for the wings to produce lift. Lift pushes the aircraft into the air and keeps it there. When an airplane goes to slow or is pointed at too great and angle, it's stalls, and falls out of the sky. Airplanes are used to carry people and goods over great distances faster and cheaper than many other forms of transport.
