Planes need big long roads to
take off and land. These long
roads are called runways and
planes need to travel very fast on
the runway before they can take
off into the air. Planes need to
gain a lot of speed to lift off in
the air.
Most aeroplanes can take off
only if they are moving fast
enough. The runway is an
important part of the airport as it
gives aeroplanes enough time to
increase their speed and
ultimately take off.
