Yes. On October 6, 1981 NLM CityHopper Flight 431 flew into a tornado 8 minutes after takeoff from Rotterdam Airport in the Netherlands. The plane lost its right wing and crashed, killing all 17 people onboard.

If there were a thousand seaguls in an airplane while its flying each weighing two pounds a piece but they were all flying in the airplane would the airplane weigh 2000 pounds more?

Those seagulls would weigh two pounds whether they were sitting in the airplane or flying in it. This is because they have push the air below them (in the airplane) down with two pounds of force to keep two pounds in the air. So, yes, the seagulls would add 2000 pounds to the airplane's weight.

Is the air pressure in a flying airplane greater that outside the flying airplane?

In a commercial airliner flying at cruising altitude, the air pressure inside the airplane is considerably higher than the air pressure outside. The air pressure outside is too low for people to breathe comfortably, so the interior is pressurized.


Do matter weights changes while in the airplane flying on air?

No, matter weights do not change while in an airplane flying through the air. Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, and this force remains constant regardless of whether the object is on the ground or in the air. The sensation of weightlessness experienced in an airplane is due to the feeling of free-fall rather than a change in actual weight.

Can aeroplane stay in the sky without movement?

Depends on what you compare it to. An airplane has to move in relation to the air to stay flying, but it doesn't really care about what the ground is doing. If it's windy enough you can point a slow-flying airplane into the wind and remain flying while not moving in relation to the ground.


How is an airplane flying an example of fluid friction?

When an airplane is flying, it experiences fluid friction with the air around it. This friction is caused by the resistance of the air to the movement of the airplane. The airplane's design and engine power are optimized to overcome this friction and maintain flight.


What type of air is above an airplane wing when it is flying?

The air above an airplane wing in flight is at lower pressure than the air below the wing. Hope this helps.
