wings provide lift to the plane (or else it would not be able to fly :)

at the wingsthere are a number of panels, including the ailerons and spoilers.

moving this panels changes the airflow over the wing, "pushing" the aircraft in a roll the forces will then help turn the plane

Why do planes need to run before take off?

The lift required to get the plane off the ground is created by the flow of the air over the planes wings.


Why do planes take off and land in the wind?

Planes take off and land into the wind because it helps provide extra lift for the wings. A headwind increases the speed of the air flowing over the wings, which creates more lift and allows the plane to take off or land at a lower speed. This is a safety measure to ensure better control and stability during these critical phases of flight.

Why do aeroplanes need wings?

An aeroplane needs wings because it helps with the main part of a plane- take off. 1.The reason why is that there are ailerons at the back of a planes wings and these help with the roll or the way a plane is steered so if we didnt have wings we couldn't steer a plane.2. The way you steer a plane you have to use rudders and these rudders allow the plane to have yaw used by the pedals .Yaw is like if you were to jump up on a trampoline and spin ,hense the motion of yaw , also to do with steering and wings. the last thing is that a plane has to have a pitch which is the way a plane takes off and to have pitch the flaps connected to the AILERONS at the BACK OF THE PLANES WINGS must be usable By Samantha Dudley.

Do pilots change the shape of the wing during takeoff and landing to move more air over the top of the wings or to even out the flow of air on both sides of the wings?

Movable wings are there in war planes to reduce the landing/take off run of the aircraft. in certain aircraft boundary layer control system is used.


Can planes take off vertically?

There are planes that can take off and land vertically, most notable of them is the Harrier jump jet build by BAE, there is also the V-22. The planes that can take off and land vertically are said to have Vertical TakeOff and Landing (VTOL) capabilities. This is usually achieved by vectoring the trust of the engines downward, so to create lift. After sufficient speed is gained, the aircraft continues flying as normal, with wings providing the lift and engines providing the forward trust.

Float planes.

How does thrust help planes fly?

Thrust is the forward force that propels an aircraft through the air, generated primarily by its engines. By overcoming drag, which opposes the aircraft's forward motion, thrust allows the plane to accelerate and reach the necessary speed for lift. Once sufficient lift is generated by the wings, the aircraft can ascend and maintain flight. Thus, thrust is a critical component in enabling planes to take off, fly, and land safely.


Can planes take off and land at same time?

No because the air around the plane has pressure. If two planes take off at the same time the planes will crash. The planes might crash if they land at the same time.


What do wings protect birds from?

In addition to enabling birds to take flight to avoid danger, their wings help protect them from the cold. Their feathers are hollow, which acts as an insulator, thus helping them stay warmer.
