more complicated forces are required

Well there's gravity (weight), air resistance (drag), The engine provides thrust, and the shape of the wings (or air frame) provides lift, but there are complex tortion forces twisting the air frame and wings about as the craft flies, sort of the way a row boat is tossed about on the sea. The trick is to have a stable air frame that can withstand a bit of tossing about and still remain a stable flying platform, so long as thrust/wieght ratio and lift remain large enough. "Wind Shear" is particularly dangerous to lighter aircraft for this very reason, if the force of the 'shear' gets to be bigger than the plane's lift or thrust/weight ratio even for a moment it can bring the plane down.

Force = Mass x Acceleration
Where there is force, there is mass as well as acceleration. Otherwise, it will be zero. You can give any name to the type of force acting on an aeroplane. Any force must have mass as well as acceleration, each being greater than zero.

only the four basic forces of lift weight thrust and drag acts on a aeroplane.There are no other complicated forces

on an aeroplane there will be four forces..... the forward force and the air resistance in the x-axis w.r.t the direction of motion of the body & there will be lift force/normal force and weight (mg) in the y axis.

Basically there are four or five forces are working on a plane to make in fly, I learnt about this some time back but check out www.howstuffworks.com , and put your question there, I am sure you will find your answer there and it will let you know how a heavy loaded metal piece can fly.

there are four forces in an airplane, they are lift, drag, weight and engine force.

Gravity tries to pull it down.
While Lift tries to keep it up.
Drag tries to slow it down.
While Thrust tries to speed it up.
I think that's about it.
