    Airplane Facts

    March 3, 2023 in Australia

    The Wright brothers invented the first aeroplane in December 17th of 1903.

    The fastest plane is the Lockhead SR-71 blackbird and it can go 3500km/ph.

    Planes can fly different heights. Commercial planes can fly up to 45,000 feet, military planes can fly up to 50,000 feet and rocket powered planes can fly up to 100,000 feet.

    Planes are used for transport, racing, sports, putting out fires, military, crop dusting and research.

    Three differences between the first plane invented and modern day planes are: older aircraft lack the same fuel efficiency, have higher noise levels, and are not as environmentally friendly as newer aircraft.

    The current Australian fighter jet is The F-35A Lightning 2.
