Full Show: How do planes stay up in the air? People have to overcome four physical forces to fly, and so do birds and bugs and anything else that wants to soar. Joan Cartan-Hansen and her guests, Frank Lester, education coordinator for the aeronautics division of the Idaho Transportation Department, and pilot Lori MacNichol, explain the mechanics of flight for both creatures and machines.
