needing to learn about flight

[JangoFett724]

My name is Chris and I need to learn more about flight for this school project. Can anyone help me?

[Frank Giger]

Chris, which part of flight is the project about? It's a big topic, which could mean:

How one learns to fly a plane.
What makes a plane fly.
The history of flight.
What's it like to pilot an aircraft?
etc.

If you could narrow it down we could help a lot more.

Well,I pretty much want to learn all about all the forces and stabilities. I already know the names and a lot about the stabilities.

I just need to learn how the three stabilities are created for the plane. And perhaps some more on the four forces.

I'm only 11

I'm only 31. Never let someone put you down just because of your age. Being bright and inquisitive is far more important than being smart. Someone (James Thurber) once put it this way: "It's often better to know some of the questions than to have all of the answers."

I just need to learn how the three stabilities are created for the plane. And perhaps some more on the four forces.

Here you go: http://www.nasa.gov/audience/forstudents/5-8/features/what-is-aerodynamics-58.html
This should help somewhat with the aerodynamics questions.

If you need anything else or have any other questions, please let me know.

Good afternoon, Chris,

You may also want to look at the NASA Glenn Research Center's Beginner's Guide to Aeronautics.
