For those of you who are not familiar with planes, there are some words you need to know in order to understand how a plane works. I have included a few words below to help you understand what I will be talking about while describing what is needed for a successful flight.
Lift: The lift of an air plane is the upward force applied to the plane.
Gravity: Gravity is the force pushing downward, trying to keep the plane on the ground.
Thrust: The thrust is the engine's ability to keep the plane moving forward; also know as the forward force.
Drag: the drag is the resisting force that stops the plane from moving forward.
Wing: Helps the lift the airplane up, by giving surface area to act upon.
Airfoil: Shaped profile of the wing,= that causes more lift than drag.
