Photo: You need big wings to lift a big plane like this US Air Force C-17 Globemaster . The wings are 51.75m (169ft) wide—that's just slightly less than the plane's body length of 53m (174ft). The maximum takeoff weight is 265,352kg (585,000lb), about as much as 40 adult elephants! Photo by Michael Battles courtesy of US Air Force .

How do planes fly?

Photo: Four forces act on a plane in flight. When the plane flies horizontally at a steady speed, lift from the wings exactly balances the plane's weight and the thrust exactly balances the drag. However, during takeoff, or when the plane is attempting to climb in the sky (as shown here), the thrust from the engines pushing the plane forward exceeds the drag (air resistance) pulling it back. This creates a lift force, greater than the plane's weight, which powers the plane higher into the sky. Photo by Nathanael Callon courtesy of US Air Force.

Photo: Newton's third law of motion —action and reaction—explains how the engines and wings work together to make a plane move through the sky. The force of the hot exhaust gas shooting backward from the jet engine pushes the plane forward. That creates a moving current of air over the wings. The wings force the air downward and that pushes the plane upward. Photo by Samuel Rogers (with added annotations by explainthatstuff.com) courtesy of US Air Force. Read more about how engines work in our detailed article on jet engines .

Photo: An airfoil wing typically has a curved upper surface and a flat lower surface. This is the wing on NASA's solar-powered Centurion plane. Photo by Tom Tschida courtesy of NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center .

" The popular explanation of lift is common, quick, sounds logical and gives the correct answer, yet also introduces misconceptions, uses a nonsensical physical argument and misleadingly invokes Bernoulli's equation." Professor Holger Babinsky, Cambridge University

How airfoil wings generate lift#1: An airfoil splits apart the incoming air, lowers the pressure of the upper air stream, and accelerates both air streams downward. As the air accelerates downward, the wing (and the plane) move upward. The more an airfoil diverts the path of the oncoming air, the more lift it generates.

How airfoil wings generate lift#2: The curved shape of a wing creates an area of low pressure up above it (red), which generates lift. The low pressure makes air accelerate over the wing, and the curved shape of the wing (and the higher air pressure well above the altered air stream) forces that air into a powerful downwash, also pushing the plane up. This animation shows how different angles of attack (the angle between the wing and the incoming air) change the low pressure region above a wing and the lift it makes. When a wing is flat, its curved upper surface creates a modest region of low pressure and a modest amount of lift (red). As the angle of attack increases, the lift increases dramatically too—up to a point, when increasing drag makes the plane stall (see below). If we tilt the wing downward, we produce lower pressure underneath it, making the plane fall. Based on Aerodynamics , a public domain War Department training film from 1941.

How much lift can you make?

Photo: How a plane stalls: Here's an airfoil wing in a wind tunnel facing the oncoming air at a steep angle of attack. You can see lines of smoke-filled air approaching from the right and deviating around the wing as they move to the left. Normally, the airflow lines would follow the shape (profile) of the wing very closely. Here, because of the steep angle of attack, the air flow has separated out behind the wing and turbulence and drag have increased significantly. A plane flying like this would experience a sudden loss of lift, which we call "stall." Photo by James Schultz, NASA Langley Research Center and Internet Archive .

Steering in theory, steering in practice.

More parts of a plane Here are some other key parts of planes: Fuel tanks : You need fuel to power a plane—lots of it. An Airbus A380 holds over 310,000 liters (82,000 US gallons) of fuel, which is about 7,000 times as much as a typical car! The fuel's safely packed inside the plane's huge wings. Landing gear : Planes take off and land on sturdy wheels and tires, which are rapidly retracted into the undercarriage (the plane's underbody) by hydraulic rams to reduce drag (air resistance) when they're in the sky. Radio and radar : The Wright brothers had to fly their pioneering Kitty Hawk plane entirely by sight. That didn't matter because it flew near the ground, stayed in the air for only 12 seconds, and there were no other planes to worry about! These days, the skies are packed with planes that fly by day, by night, and in all kinds of weather. Radio , radar , and satellite systems are essential for navigation. Pressurized cabins : Air pressure falls with height above Earth's surface—that's why mountaineers need to use oxygen cylinders to reach extreme heights. The summit of Mount Everest is just under 9km (5.5 miles) above sea level, but jet planes routinely fly at greater altitudes than this and military planes have flown almost three times higher! That's why passenger planes have pressurized cabins: ones into which heated air is steadily pumped so people can breathe properly. Military pilots avoid the problem by wearing face masks and pressurized body suits. --> --> Acknowledgements

Notes and references ↑    Newton's third law is sometimes written as "action and reaction are equal and opposite." That can be confusing, because it makes you wonder why anything goes anywhere at all: why don't the action and the reaction just cancel out? The answer is that the action and reaction work on different things . The action works on one thing; the reaction works on something else. So if the action is a whoosh of hot gas firing back from a jet engine, the reaction is the plane moving forward; if the action is a wing going upward, the reaction is the air going downward. The forces are indeed equal and opposite, but they don't cancel out because they act on different things.

Interesting Aviation Topics to Use in a Presentation

Informative Speeches on Technology

Aviation topics can span several categories, and contain several subsets. Your topic should cater to your presentation audience; college students may be interested in career opportunities in commercial or military aviation, while senior citizens may enjoy historical aircraft restoration or historical figures. Frequent business travelers may be more interested in commercial airline topics, such as safety issues. Get as much information as possible about the purpose of your presentation and audience to help you provide meaningful information.

Commercial Airline Safety

In 2011, a section of a Southwest Airlines commercial airliner peeled away as it climbed above Arizona, reigniting concerns of airline structural integrity that arose when a similar incident occurred in an Aloha Airlines aircraft in 1988. The similarities of the accident occurring in two 737s reawakened concerns on aging airplanes and manufacturing standards. The National Transportation Safety Board is responsible for investigating airline accidents, and has called on the Federal Aviation Administration to be more proactive on retiring aging airplanes. Your presentation can take a look at current guidelines, proposed changes, and what manufacturers such as Boeing are saying about this issue.

Personal Aviation Careers

Individuals can obtain a personal pilot’s license (PPL) that is like a driver’s license for the sky. In addition to flying for pleasure, once you have your PPL and a suitable airplane, you can pursue other careers, such as tour or sightseeing guide, crop-dusting, providing private transportation or even working as an instructor at a flight school. Your presentation can detail the steps and requirements necessary for obtaining the PPL, including any annual re-certification requirements and profiles of small plane pilots who have found new careers in personal aviation.

Aviation Pioneers

Anyone with a passion for aviation is interested in aviation history, including pioneers of flight. Many of these figures have interesting personal stories that make good presentation material, such as transatlantic flight pioneer Charles Lindbergh; the mysterious disappearance of Amelia Earhart; and the adventurous flights of Charles Yeager. In addition to the historical interest, your presentation can highlight the significance of these pioneers, and how their individual contributions directly impact modern aviation.

Historical Restoration

The interest in historical aircraft and restoration is evident at the numerous aircraft shows that take place around the country. Personal stories on the challenges of aircraft restoration can give your presentation a riveting human element, such as the history of the plane restored, as well as the pilot restoring it. The restoration efforts do not have to be on military aircraft; many small, personal airplanes have been restored and original owners traced, who are then able to fly in the same aircraft they flew decades earlier. Researching the process of restoration and challenges encountered can offer you some excellent presentation material.
