Commercial jet airplanes fly at about 900 kilometres per hour and at altitudes of 10,000 to 12,000 metres — high enough that the air outside is around minus 50 degrees Celsius. Airplanes work by generating lift: air flows faster over the curved top of the wing than under it, creating lower pressure on top that pulls the wing upward.
Coloring ideas: give the airplane a white body with a colorful stripe along the fuselage — try red, blue, or teal. Color the engines silver or gray and the windows light blue. The clouds can be pure white or shaded very lightly in lavender or pale gray at their bases. Make the sun golden yellow with bright rays.
Kids can draw their own airline logo on the tail fin. Younger children can practice coloring the big rounded cloud shapes while older kids add detail to the wings and landing gear.
