Watching the aeroplane from down and thinking that, how such big aeroplane can fly,
Let's know how,
If you want to know how the planes fly then first you need to clear the difference between the jet engines and wings of the planes.
The plane's engine move it forward at a high speed because of which the air flow rapidly over the wings, that throws the air towards the ground and generates an upward force called as lift which holds the plane in the sky.
So the engines moves the plane forward and wings makes it fly. In simple language this 4 forces keeps the planes in the sky :

Thrust and lift: Thrust is when an object is put forward in force, which pushes the plane forward.
Lift is the force the drives a plane upward and keep it in the sky.
Drag and gravity: Drag is when the moving object blocks the flow of air, slowing the object down, so the planes are designed to have enough thrust to overcome the amount of drag.
Gravity is the force that pulls all objects down towards the earth.
The planes have perfect flying speed and wing size that creates right amount of lift and overcomes the gravity.
This all causes the aeroplanes to fly in the sky .
