ok dude this is like the second time i get this kinda of question. I will tell you how it work ok? the propellers on an airplane wings works only by the pilots turning them on. The piliots switches a switch on top of his head know as the engine ignition. The plane propellers will spin as the plane taxies to the runway.

The propellers act as a thrusting force which drives the airplane forward. In addition to the wings and vertical and horizontal tail wings, this helps an airplane to become airborne and fly.

How do propellers affect airplanes altitude?

Propellers generate thrust by converting rotational energy into forward motion, which helps lift the airplane. As the propeller spins, it creates a pressure difference between the upper and lower surfaces of the wings, contributing to lift. If the thrust generated by the propellers is sufficient to overcome gravity, the airplane can climb to a higher altitude. Conversely, if thrust decreases or drag increases significantly, the airplane may struggle to maintain or gain altitude.

Where do birds get their lift from?

From their speed and wings combined. Overall they work like an airplane, except they get their speed from clapping their wings.


Can an aircraft overcome lift without wings or propellers?

No, that is not possible except with rotors. (which I would include among propellers)
