The first aircraft that managed to make flights was the Wright Brothers in 1903.
The aircraft's wings function to produce the lift needed so that the aircraft can fly.
Modern aircraft use a jet engine that is more efficient and faster than a propeller engine.
The aircraft navigation system uses GPS (Global Positioning System) technology to determine the location and route of the flight.
The height of the aircraft can be measured using an altimeter that measures air pressure.
When the plane slides on the runway, the speed can reach more than 250 kilometers per hour.
The concept of modern aircraft wings is based on the Bernoulli principle, which is a lower air pressure above the wings and higher air pressure below the wings.
At a high height, the temperature outside the aircraft can reach -60 degrees Celsius or lower.
The aircraft regulation and control system is carried out through a fly-by-wire system that uses computer technology.
Modern aircraft are equipped with an automatic landing system that allows aircraft to land safely without the interference of pilots.
