Where does an airplane land?

Answer 1

Depending on their size. Small airplanes require a reduction of power and deployment of Flaps ( Section of the wing that will create drag as well as extra lift). Large aircrafts require the pilot to configure it for landing by following procedures that are more complex. The basic still applies. Slow down, Deploy flaps and/or slats, lower gear, maintain airspeed, and right before touch down the pilot "flares"(slow the decent to to basically 0) right before touch down.

Answer 2

At its destination. A lot of the time that's an airport, but a plane can land anywhere it's safe to do so and permitted. Some planes land on lakes - those are seaplanes and they're equipped with floats. People who own farms and have airplanes can land them on their farms. My high school English teacher owned a half-mile-long plateau they bought in the 1960s for three dollars an acre, and landed in their front yard.
