I thought of this when I was thinking of dams (?!), and I'd like to share it with you.
HOW IT WOULD BE BUILT
You would make a boat:
And then you'd make a turbine (a CLEAN turbine!):
Then you'd place the boat on land, and when you left-click either ends of the boat with the turbine equipped, it would attach itself to whatever end you clicked, and the boat would expand to be twice as big as a normal boat, and you could place blocks in it.
Then, in order for the turbine to work, you'd have to place a furnace near the turbine, and it would run on coal.
But what about wings?
Here's how you'd make them ( = Wooden Slab)
Then you'd right click on the sides of the boat with wings equipped, and then they would automatically attach to the boat.
Then, you'd left-click the finished plane to sit in it.
Didn't you say - you don't mean planes with engines?

lawl. You win.
Ok, I read the entire post. I will tell you right now that this is not possible. Right now the game cannot detect multiple blocks as groups. So the game cannot detect an object that has separate blocks inside it (like the furnace you mentioned) and the wings attached to the side. The only way the game could do this is if you crafted a boat, a propeller, a furnace, and 2 wings, and then assembled it in a crafting table like so:
And this would give you a place-able plane entity item. So you need to overhaul the recipe to make craftable in a 3x3 grid (even if it has multiple crafted components like my example) so it is actually possible with the vanilla game.
That being said, this idea is exactly like EVERY other plane suggestion and gets no support from me.

Lol. Thanks.
About the block groups, though, *cough*runecraft*cough*. Also portals (in vanilla). Build a plane like he said, right click and the blocks get replaced with a plane entity. Fully doable, but it is like all the other plane suggestions. Somebody should really make a thread about NOT suggesting planes, guns and cars, and then sticky it. (Pin?)

Thats not a plane. But both are Fixed-Wing Aircrafts :smile.gif:
True. There were some military projects about making a plane with no engine, attach it to a larger plane, fly it high up, then let it glide down. Another project involved a tank with wings. I am not sure if these are classified as planes, though, but unless the definition of the word plane stands for a FWA with an engine, we may find something that has no engine but is still a plane.
...Then again, they say, "Attach an engine and a propeller, and even your backyard gate would fly".

Yes, I know about the military and their gliders they attached to planes that carried troops down into the hotzones. I think they also could put a few jeeps in them. The idea of a putting wings on a tank and letting it fall makes me giggle :3. Its hard to define words as they have different meanings for everyone. I just feel anything that is a Fixed-Wing Aircraft and has an engine is a plane while w/o an engine is a glider. But what about these Ornithopters :ohmy.gif:

Just like helicopters, they don't belong to Fixed Wing Aircraft.

I meant they should be a suggestion( Leonardo da Vinci tried to make em I think ). Also, aren't they like powered like birds? Flapping wings. They are still fixed-wing I believe... But helicopters are rotor-wing.

Fixed-wing aircraft are distinct from ornithopters in which lift is generated by flapping wings and rotary-wing aircraft in which wings rotate about a fixed mast.
Also, I don't remember anyone suggesting helicopters, either. That would be funny actually, imagine a huge military 'copter (of the "flying banana" variety) dropping creepers on you (and skeletons shooting from inside)! The helicopter would also have machine guns, lazers and a special scanner nuke which you get if you beat it (it kills all mobs in all loaded chunks, bringing their drops to you, as well as mines and smelts all the ores).

As long as the engine is running, it will move.
You'd go in first-person and fly with the cursor.
When you press F5, it goes into autopilot.
Idk, what do you think?
