After takeoff, the pilot retracts the flaps. In the Airport Wind Look for a windsock on the airfield. Notice the direction of your plane as it takes off. A windsock is pushed in the direction the wind is blowing. As the wind blows faster, the windsock fills up more.
Airplanes usually take off and land into the wind.
This increases the speed of the air flowing over the wings, which increases the lift. Before and during the flight. Try to mark where the string swings. As the plane lifts off the ground, look straight at the paper and notice where the string is hanging. Mark this point on the paper.
