How do planes stay in flight?

Planes stay in flight primarily due to the principles of aerodynamics, specifically lift, thrust, drag, and weight. Lift is generated by the wings as air flows over and under them, creating a pressure difference. Thrust, produced by the engines, propels the plane forward, while drag opposes this motion. The balance of these forces allows the plane to ascend, cruise, and descend safely in the air.
