There are a number of factors that influence the flight phenomenon like natural selection, their feeding behavior and their habitat . As we know that birds have modifications according to their surrounding environment or their feeding behavior same matter is with penguins they live in an environment where they have to feed in water that’s why they swim rather than flying and their body is modified for swimming

 Flightless birds

Flying birds are modified for flight its common example is sparrow

While flightless birds are either runners or swimmers like ostrich is modified for running and penguin for swimming.

Penguins

Petrels were ancestors of penguins and their wing were modified for aerial flight only latter on they give rise to diving petrels which were able for aerial fight as well as submarine flight and in last finally penguins evolved which are modified for submarine flight only.

They are found in southern hemisphere. While some people think that they live in Antarctica only that is a wrong concept They are also called marine birds and like to live in cold climate.
