Question

24 (f) State whether the following statements are true or false.

Aircraft fly in the ionosphere as there is less friction in this zone.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

The Troposphere is the layer of the Earth's atmosphere where most planes fly.

• The troposphere is the atmosphere's nearest layer to the Earth.
• It is also the layer that contains all weather.
• Larger planes will occasionally fly in the Tropopause, the higher limit of the Troposphere, or even the Stratosphere, the lower barrier of the next layer, to escape turbulence and severe weather.

Final answer: The given statement is false.
