      Well, this is not my speciality but what happens is as the plane moves forward in high speed it is essentially pushing through air. When that happens air is either pushed above or below the wings, what the pilot can do here is to angle the wings so that air goes below which help “lift” the plane upwards.

      Hope that makes sense 🙂
