Airplanes wings are modeled after bird wings, so they are similarly aerodynamical. The air flows around the wing of a bird and airplane creating buoyancy under the wing keeping the animal and aircraft on air. The difference is that a bird uses its muscles to move the wings to carry it onwards, while a plane uses propellers or jet engines to push it forwards.
