Do you Know why an aircraft flies?
(Bernoulli or Newton?)

Because it's faster than a train or automobile which are both faster than by foot. Because both Bernoulli and Newton can get to New England much faster than if they didn't have airplanes to fly in.

If it goes up or stays up: Bernoulli.
If it comes crashing down: Newton.

Great! Xvimbi, this is the more convincing explanation about the physic of flight I ever red.
Try to image a captain saying to passengers something likethat: "Ladies and gentleman, because of the well-known law by Newton, we are going down!"

if an aircraft goes up: Bernoulli>Newton
if an aircraft stays up: Bernoulli=Newton
if an airplane goes down: Bernoulli<Newton
BTW, the question struck me unexpectedly....
