Friction is the force resisting the movement of an object across a surface. For an airplane there is no friction when it is flying. Instead this is referred to as air resistance which produces drag forces.
There are several forces acting on the airplane at one time: Thrust, Drag, Lift, and Gravity.

How is airplane flight impacted by the coriolis effect?
The coriolis effect on an airplane flight is totally insignificant. The forces required for an aircraft to fly, are way greater than the force generated by the coriolis effect, so it doesn't make any difference whatsoever.
What effect does wind have on the flight of paper airplanes?
The wind can push the airplane in all driecrions which causes the airplane to go crazy.
Does the design of paper airplane effect its flight?
yes beacose it adds weight to the plain
Does the design of an airplane effect its flight?
yes, smaller ones go faster usually. there are many differences
Basic elements of an airplane flight?
I think you might be referring to the four forces of flight. LIFT -- force provided by the wing and in perpendicular direction to the wing. In straight and level flight the lift is exactly equal to the aircraft weight. WEIGHT -- the force pulling vertically down on the airplane due to gravity. In straight and level flight this is equal to the lift. THRUST -- the force that pulls the airplane forward, provided by the propeller or jet engine. If the airplane is flying at a constant speed in level flight, this thrust is exactly equal to the drag. DRAG -- the aerodynamic force on the airplane in the opposite direction of its travel. Drag is due to skin friction, form drag (drag around wheels, struts, etc) and induced drag (produced by the wing as a side effect of lift)
How does friction effect archery?
Hi. There is no friction in archery because there is no warmth like rubbing you hands together. FORCE=muXN
How is friction not helpful?
When moving machine parts rub together, skidding on floor, airplane flight (too much air resistance), sledding down a hill.
In what flight condition is torque effect the greatest in a single-engine airplane?
high power low airspeeds.... take off
What principle governs the take off of a flight?
For an airplane taking off I believe that would be a combination of Bernoulli's principle and ground effect.
What is a example of fluid friction?
An example of fluid friction is the air resistance felt by an airplane.
What are the four forces that act on an aircraft in flight?
LiftGravityThrustDragLift is the lifting force that allows airplanes to fly, gravity is the force pulling it back down.Thrust is the force that propels an airplane forward, drag is the aerodynamic friction slowing it down.These variables are constantly interacting with eachother, when an airplane is in straight and level flight, these forces are said to be in balance.
