6. The elevators allow the pilot to pitch the plane up or down the flight path.
10. This is the main body of the airplane. This consists of the cockpit, where the pilot and copilots sit, the passenger cabin, and the cargo area.

1. Force caused by air resistance.
2. These are the large, flat surfaces on either side of the fuselage that generate lift and keep the airplane in the air. Wings have two main controls: flaps and ailerons.
3. Force that moves the plane forward.
4. Flaps can be adjusted to increase the surface area of the wings and control the amount of lift and drag.
5. Ailerons are flat moving surfaces attached close to each end of the wings. allow the pilot to rotate the plane either towards the left or the right.
7. A single tall, flat moving surface attached to the back of the vertical section of the tail.
8. Force caused by changing air pressure above and below a wing.
9. The tail consists of two stabilizers, a horizontal stabilizer, and a vertical stabilizer. The tails helps to stabilize the airplane in flight.
