The Difference Between Flying an Airplane and A Helicopter

Airplanes and helicopters use the same basic principles to fly: lift, weight, thrust, and drag. However, this doesn’t mean that these two aircraft fly in the same way. The rotor blades of a helicopter spin incredibly fast and provide the lift that the helicopter needs to take flight. An airplane requires constant airflow over its wings to stay aloft.
