I thing you mean how can plain float on air?

It is just like boat.

But in many ways it is different, I have an article written just for you, here it is.

How can plain float on air?

It is the geometry of the plain, and the propeller or jet engine or rocket engine.

To make plain fly, air under the plain must support the plain, the pressure under the wing of the plain is more then pressure over the wing.

The propeller drives the air over and under the wing, by design air has to travel more distance over the wing then under the wing. If air coming out at pressure P and going over the wing is say 2p, then neglecting other losses P=2p, as the air from prop, touches the front wing tips. Say half travel over and half travels under.

The component that goes over the top of the wing will be at pressure p1, and other component will be p2, by design you will have p1

Aeroplane float on the air on principle of pressure difference between under side of the plane and upper side of the plane. Aerodynamic design of plane wings create higher pressure below plane and speed maintains the pressure, hence plane is floating on the are despite being very heavy.
