To get enough thrust to have lot of wind move under the wings to have the wind lift it up...if you went backwards then the balance of the plane would make it impossible to pilot.
An airplane flying through the air, a swimmer diving into a pool etc.
Examples of fluid friction are fish swimming through water, an airplane flying through the air and a motorboat skidding over water. Although fluid friction refers to friction through water, it can also apply to air.
Projectiles are basically just objects that move through air along a trajectory without a propulsion system. A simpler definition is that projectiles are things that move through air along a curved path without anything to push it forward, like a motor. Examples would be like an eraser that you throw at someone.
An airplane stays up in the air due to a combination of factors. The main factor is the shape of the wings, which creates lift as air flows over and under them. The engines also provide thrust to move the plane forward, and the overall design of the plane helps maintain stability and control during flight.

Thrust generated by the airplane's engines helps it achieve flight by propelling it forward and increasing its speed through the air. This increased speed allows the wings to generate lift, which raises the airplane off the ground.
The commonly used fuselage shape allows the aeroplane to move forward through the air at a reduced drag. And the sectional shape of the wings create lift.
thrust
An airplane produces thrust by using its engines to accelerate air backwards. This backward acceleration generates an equal and opposite reaction force, pushing the airplane forward. This force overcomes drag and allows the airplane to move through the air.
Drag is the force that acts against the motion of an airplane as it flies through the air. It is caused by the resistance of the air to the forward motion of the airplane, and it slows the airplane down. Pilots must account for drag to maintain optimal speed and efficiency during flight.
Thrust is the forward movement of an airplane that is provided by the engines. The thrust causes air to move over and under the wings and allows the plane to fly.
Well the plane is flying through the air not through space. It is the pressure differential on the airfoils that make the plane move through the air.
An eagle uses its wings to move and fly as most birds do. The wings move up and down in order for air to flow through them and allow the eagle to move forward through the air.
It sounds like you are referring to a paper airplane. Paper airplanes are lightweight and aerodynamic, allowing them to be propelled forward through the air. By folding the paper in a specific way, you can create a simple flying toy that can glide and move through the air.
That's true for the airplane's wings, when the airplane is flying upright.
Lift: Generated by the wings and counteracts the force of gravity, allowing the airplane to stay airborne. Weight: Force of gravity acting on the airplane's mass, pulling it downwards towards the earth. Thrust: Generated by the engines and propels the airplane forward through the air. Drag: Resistance force opposing the airplane's forward motion, caused by friction between the airplane and the air it moves through.
As an airplane moves forward a vacuum forms on top of the wing. That vacuum lifts the airplane off the ground and into the air.
