- Airplane Parts and Function | Glenn Research Center | NASAFighter aircraft often have the jet engines buried inside the fuselage instead of in pods hung beneath the wings. Many fighter aircraft also combine the horizontal stabilizer and elevator into a single stabilator surface. There are many possible aircraft configurations, but any configuration must provide for the four forces needed for flight.
- Airplane - WikipediaAn airplane (North American English) or aeroplane (British English), informally plane, is a fixed-wing aircraft that is propelled forward by thrust from a jet engine, propeller, or rocket engine. [1] Airplanes come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and wing configurations.The broad spectrum of uses for airplanes includes recreation, transportation of goods and people, military, and research.

- Aircraft Categories, Classes, and Types: PilotinstituteAn aircraft under the powered lift category, such as the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey, is capable of vertical takeoff, landing, and low-speed flight. An aircraft in this category depends on engine-driven devices (e.g., propellers) or thrust (i.e., a jet engine) for lift at low speed but non-rotating surfaces (i.e., wings) at higher speeds.
- History of flight | Airplanes, Dates, & Facts | BritannicaThis article tells the story of the invention of the airplane and the development of civil aviation from piston-engine airplanes to jets. For a history of military aviation, see military aircraft; for lighter-than-air flight, see airship.
