A weather airplane can be used for hurricanes or tornadoes hurricanes usually but it can drop a device into the storm and the device sends feedback.

Why do airplanes fly in the troposphere?

Airplanes fly in the troposphere because it is the layer of the atmosphere where most weather occurs, providing the lift and stability needed for flight. Additionally, the air density is ideal for supporting the wings of an airplane and minimizing fuel consumption.


How did people study the upper atomosphere before there were airplanes and other sophisticated instruments?

Before airplanes and other sophisticated instruments, people studied the upper atmosphere using tools such as ground-based telescopes, weather balloons, rockets, and sounding rockets. These methods allowed scientists to observe and collect data on the upper atmosphere's composition, temperature, and pressure.


Which part of the atmosphere do air planes fly?

Airplanes typically fly in the troposphere, which is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere and where most weather events occur. This layer extends from the surface up to about 12 kilometers (7.5 miles) in altitude.


Why do jet airplanes often fiy in the stratosphere?

Jet airplanes often fly in the stratosphere because it offers smoother air, less turbulence, and less resistance which makes it more fuel-efficient for long-distance flights. Additionally, flying at higher altitudes allows jets to avoid some weather patterns and take advantage of stronger tailwinds for faster travel.


Can airplanes or satellites fly in the thermosphere?

Yes, airplanes cannot fly in the thermosphere due to the extremely low air density at that altitude. Satellites do not fly in the traditional sense but orbit within the thermosphere, taking advantage of the lack of air resistance.

Is there anything that airplanes do that effect the environment in a good way?

There are numerous airplanes that do weather and environmental studies. I would say that they are affecting the environment in a positive way.


Where do airplanes fly to avoid the weather?

Airplanes with the aid of radar or simply by the pilot looking outside can navigate around the weather by going around it left, right, above it, below it. In some cases even returning to point of origin. Weather is something pilots monitor constantly.


Are airplanes in the stratosphere?

Yes, airplanes do fly in the stratosphere to get above most bad weather. (Note: Nobody would want to ride in a storm and getting freaked out!)

What layer do airplanes sometimes travel to avoid bed weather?

Airplanes sometimes travel to the jet stream layer to avoid bad weather. The jet stream can provide a smoother ride above turbulent weather systems such as thunderstorms. It is located at high altitudes, typically between 30,000 and 40,000 feet.

Do airplanes fly over hurricanes?

No, airplanes do not fly over hurricanes. Pilots and airlines have strict safety protocols in place to avoid flying through or over severe weather conditions like hurricanes to ensure the safety of passengers and crew.


Application of radar in airplanes?

The main application is to avoid bad weather. Modern weather Radar can see through the clouds and locate the cell of the thunderstorm. This allows the passenger airliner to avoid the bad weather, thus allowing his passengers to enjoy their ride, and allow them to get to their destination on time.


Are jets really airplanes?

Yes, jets really are airplanes but they are faster airplanes.


Are airplanes and gliders the same?
