You didn't say what grade you were in so I'm not sure what references to point you to.

Have you done any searching? Have you tried putting "How do airplanes fly?" into your favorite search engine or ask.com?

Nasa has some good information and here is just one of the more basic ones:

Try doing a little web research and then post back with any more specific questions. This sounds more like a class project and not a Science Fair project which is the primary purpose of of this site. Class projects usually come with some mandated constraints so if you want help, you need to let us know what the constraints are.
