How do airplanes fly upside down?

A plane can fly upside down, sideways, or in any other position, besides backwards, because the same rules in physics (lift and drag) still apply. However, the plane will try to level out if the wings are swept up.

The ability to fly upside down depends on the plane. The wings have to be able to provide enough lift when upside-down. The plane has to have enough power to give it enough speed to provide the lift. You can't fly any airliner upside-down because it would be too heavy.

Dog-fighter pLanes can do this to evade enemies if they have a more powerful engine. It is basically a 180. They start flying straight, then they turn it upside-down, then pull back on the yoke. This increases their speed greatly, which is why you need about 5,000 feet in elevation to do this (depending on the plane).
