Airplanes\nHumans have always watched birds. Birds could fly, but humans couldn't. Many years ago people started creating different gadgets that could help them to fly. In the 1700s and 1800s humans flew in balloons, but in 1903 people built the first airplane. The word "plane" is a shortened name for "airplane".\nThere is a fairy tale about the airplane that only thought about itself. In the middle of a big city there was a large airport. One plane there was unhappy. One day people got into the plane to travel and the pilot controlled the plane. Everything was fine. But soon the plane decided that it wanted to be free and flew up and down in the sky. The pilot didn't know what to do. The plane went where it wanted. Suddenly some black clouds appeared in the sky and it started to rain heavily. The plane was afraid of the strong wind and everything. It didn't know where the airport was. But the pilot knew. Soon they landed safely and everybody was happy.
