by running and jumping off the ground, also by flapping their wings -Although SOME birds (like the Albatross) have a hard time flapping, THEY HAVE TO WAIT for a strong breeze. Airplanes' wings are thicker at the front of the wing than at the back of the wing. This is in imitation of birds' wings.

How do birds and bats create effective wings?

Birds have streamlined wings that create lift and reduce drag, allowing them to efficiently glide and soar through the air. Bats have flexible wings with multiple joints that can change shape and surface area, providing maneuverability and agility in flight. Both adaptations help birds and bats generate lift and thrust to fly effectively.

What is the difference between a helicopter creating lift and anairplane creating lift?

the difference between an helicopter creating lift and an airplane creating lift is simple. an airplane creates lift by moving forward and its wing that has an aerofoil shaped will create lift. this gives the lift for the airplane and to fly. for helicopters, instead of the aerofoil is fix like an airplane, the aerofoil wing is rotating and create lift. that is why the helicopter does not need to move forward to gain momentum to create lift. by rotating the aerofoil (the blade) the helicopter can creates enough lift to lift up the helicopter.and that's how it fly..

If they were flat they would generate no lift and birds could not fly. Aeroplane wings are very similar in shape to bird wings - they are nearly flat underneath and convex on top.


Will a lorry with birds on it weigh the same if all the birds lift up in the air?

If the lorry contains the birds in a sealed container then the weight is unchanged. As they lift from their perches they must accelerate and the resultant downward force on the lorry will make it appear to weigh more for a very short time.
