Definitely a complicated question just to type out.

Basically it starts out with your airfoil (wing). As the wing moves forward the velocity of the air particles passing above the wing travel faster than the particles below the wing. They are being split apart as the airfoil moves through the air and must meet up at relatively the same time. This creates a relative low pressure above the wing or in a sense a vacuum which in turn creates lift that allows the airplane to "defy gravity". Overlooking all the complex engineering and weight and balance issues you have four basic forces acting on the airplane. First the THRUST that moves the airplane in a forward direction so that you can then get LIFT in the upward direction from the wings. Counteracting the thrust is what's called DRAG that is produced by both lift and the impacting surfaces of the airplane or any foreign objects (kind of like as you going along in your canoe and you stick your hand in the water which slows you down). The fourth force is WEIGHT which is the force applied downward by earth's gravitational pull and will remain the same except for the fuel that is being burnt. These four forces must be taken in consideration when thinking how a plane flies...As a plane takes off there is an increase in speed and in altitude so the must be more thrust than drag and more lift than weight. During level flight all four forces are equal to each other.

route of flight relies upon on the view element. If an airplane is flying right into a head wind that exceeds the wind speed of the plane, it would want to look flying backwards from a reference element on land. A helicopter has rotating wings, and so the raise is from a imperative axis. The wings are aways flying ahead so some distance as they're worried, yet not in relationship to the plane.

there are four forces that it has to over come
weight vs. lift
thrust vs. drag
The weight of the airplane tries to pull it down
The Lift makes it go up
The thrust is the power that makes it go forward
The drag is the resistance of metal going through the air.
