What kind of question is this?
Do you want to know how aircraft fly in the air?
The wing is an airfoil which produces lift. IT does this by creating a differential pressure when it is moved forward into the air with thrust. The top of the wing is curved and the bottom flat. This creates a low pressure above the airfoil and a high pressure below as the air has to travel farther above. This creates lift.

wing design. The bottom of the wing is flat while the top is curved. air going over the wing curls under. The forward momentum is generated by the use of jet propultion or propelers. In the case of propelers, they work much the same way as a boats properlers do only the other way around. In the case of jet propultion, the easy answer is to say that fuel is burned to creat power for a system of moving parts that does what a prop essentially does.

A couple guys get behind the plane and push REALLY hard. Then the pilots lean an arm out each window and flap REALLY hard. With a little effort, some pixie dust and a whole lot of love, they're flyin' all right!
Now, landing? That's another story.

They have these engines that roar and the air lifts the wing and up they go? What did you mean?
