We are living in the Age of Science. Everyday new inventions are being made for the good of humanity. The scientific inventions began after the INDUSTRIAL Revolution of 1789. Within these 200 years, science has made a wonderful progress. The aeroplane is one of the most important inventions of science during the Modern Age. It is the fastest means of transport know so far. An aeroplane resembles a flying bird in shape. Inside there are seats for the passengers and a cabin for the pilot. This cabin is called a cockpit. It has an engine that is worked by petrol. It is all made up of metal and can fly at a very HIGH speed. Before taking off it runs on the runway for some distance to gather speed. Then it suddenly hops up the EARTH and takes off.
