Best Answer

In flight, a wing has lower pressure on top and higher pressure on bottom due to Bernoulli's principle which in turn "sucks" the airplane into the air. The air on top must travel a longer distance than the air on bottom in order to meet up again because of the shape of the wing therefore causing the effects of Bernoulli's principle.
