Hi there, Amanda! Welcome to the site.

My nephew came to me the other day and asked me the same question. How do airplanes fly? I brought him to my computer room and showed him two videos, on Youtube, and now he understands. I'll share the same two videos with you now. So...here you go:

The first video shows "How do airplanes fly?"
How do Airplanes Fly? - YouTube

This next video talks about the KF airfoil
The 4 Reasons To Use a KF AIRFOIL! - YouTube

You mentioned that you were going to build the trainer from the site. That trainer uses the KFm3 airfoil and works very very well. I have a trainer and it flies great. My wife will be learning to fly rc with the trainer.

Here is just another bit of info that shows the various KF airfoils.

I hope I didn't throw too much info at you at once and I hope this helps. If you have any other questions...post them up. We'll get ya sorted!
