JUST WHAT IS A NAT ANYWAY?
As stated above, nats are actually flies. They go
by many names including punkies, punkys, buffalo nats,
buffalo flies, eye nats, black nats, black flies,
hippelates flies, no-seeums or just plain old "nats".

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).

Termites are insects somehow comparable to ants or bees also forming huge colonies. Adult termites have legs and maggots do not. Maggots are the larves from flies for example, after they hatch from an eggs. Maggots can live on their own in cheese, meat or in open wounds when the egg is layed on it. Those maggots later build a capsule in which they transform into a new fly. The termite queens lays eggs from which larves hatch. Termite larves are fed by other termites. Search for more information development of bees, wasps, bumble bees or Vespa crabro.
