They turn there body at an angle to one side, so that the plane is not entirely horizontal. This the gives it a banking angle and the side that it tilts its wings too that it is the side it will turn, without extra force or thrust needed.

∙ 12y agothere are three axis of motion for aircraft: Roll, Pitch, and Yaw, which correspond to the Z, Y, and X axis in three-dimensional space. (Translation: Yaw = left and right, Pitch = up and down, Roll = rotation)
as such, an airplane has three sets of control surfaces: The Rudder, The Elevators, and ailerons, which control yaw, pitch, and roll, respectively. the elevators and rudder are usually on the tail of the airplane, while the ailerons are on the wings.
sometimes, two or more of these control surfaces are combined, such as on the stealth fighter, which has the elevator and rudder combined into a V shape, called a butterfly tail.
the rudder is the one that steers a plane left and right. often, it is combined with a slight roll, in a maneuver called a banked turn, which reduces strain on the airframe due to air resistance..

What do rudder Do on a planes?
a rudder causes a plane to yaw which basically means it turns but doesn't bank.
How does an aircraft get to its altitude?
Either after take off the pilot turns on auto pilot or he pitches the plane nose up by pullling back on the plane yoke a yoke is used to make the plane go up and dwn
