Similiar questions:
Is a plane 'pushed' up or 'lifted' up? Are F1 cars 'pushed down' by the air foils or sucked down by a low pressure zone beneath the air foil?[/quote]

Aircraft are "Sucked" up due to low pressure created above the wing. A wing is like half of a venturi (which is how your carburator accelerates air intake).
