Answer:

If lift becomes greater than weight, then the plane will accelerate upward. If the weight is greater than the lift, then the plane will accelerate downward. When the thrust becomes greater than the drag, the plane will accelerate forward. If drag becomes greater than the thrust a deceleration will occur.

When the lift is greater than the weight, the aircraft gains altitude. ... Drag must be overcome for the aircraft to move, and movement is essential to obtain lift. To overcome drag and move the aircraft forward, another force is essential. This force is thrust.
