Because they are far away.
When you think of fast-moving objects, most of your day-to-day experience comes from seeing cars and trains move around you. Most of the time when you see a car driving by, you observe it from a relatively short distance, less than 1/4 mile or so, often just a few feet. It is extremely rare to be this close to a flying airplane. Indeed, on the rare occasion that you do see a car from over a mile away, it appears to move very slowly. It is just the same with airplanes. When you see an airplane in the sky it is almost always more than a mile away from you, often several miles away.
If you were to stand near a runway where an airplane was landing, it would seem to be moving very fast indeed, even though the landing is in fact the slowest part of the flight. The only time most of us get to see airplanes fly up-close is at an airshow. At an airshow you will see that airplanes do in fact move very very fast.
What else can I help you with?
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.
Is an airplane external force?
Yes, an airplane is subject to external forces such as lift, weight, thrust, and drag while flying. These external forces are crucial for the airplane to maintain its flight.
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.
A flying airplane is affected by which force or forces?
A flying airplane is affected by several forces, including lift (upward force generated by its wings), weight (gravitational force pulling it down), thrust (forward force generated by its engines), and drag (rearward force opposing its motion through the air).
What is the role of wind in flying an airplane?
Wind plays a crucial role in flying an airplane by affecting its speed, direction, and lift. Pilots need to account for wind speed and direction when planning flight routes, takeoff, and landing to ensure safe and efficient flying. Wind can either help or hinder an aircraft's performance depending on whether it is a headwind, tailwind, or crosswind.
How slow can the slowest airplane fly?
Depends on what you consider flying the Harrier and F-35B can hover at 0 knots
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 does a rc airplane simulator work?
A RC simulator is a combination of computer graphics and mechanical mechanisms that allows you to simulate the actual look and feel of flying an airplane.

A flying machine starting with a?
An airplane is a flying machine starting with the letter A.
Can you use your laptop if your flying in an airplane will the laptops internet work if i have internet on it?
No. Even if a laptop has internet, it does not work while flying on an airplane, because there is no Wi-Fi on an airplane, or in the sky.
