If the airplane is not a lifting body and has no wings, there could be no lift to hold it aloft. Therefore, the only force acting on the aircraft in the vertical dimension is gravity, and so the airplane falls.

Why do paper airplanes fly?

Paper airplanes fly due to the principles of aerodynamics. When a paper airplane is thrown, the shape of its wings and the angle at which it is thrown create lift, which allows the airplane to stay in the air and glide. The force of gravity pulling the airplane down is counteracted by the lift generated by the wings, allowing the airplane to fly.

How do paper airplanes work and what factors affect their flight performance?

Paper airplanes work by utilizing the principles of aerodynamics. When thrown, the wings of the paper airplane create lift, which allows it to stay in the air. Factors that affect a paper airplane's flight performance include the design of the airplane, the weight distribution, the shape of the wings, and the force of the throw.
