I think planes are fine, they just need to be solar and wind powered.
Solar to get them in the air, and then wind you are going fast enough the wind turbine on the top provides limitless electricity to power the plane forward.

You’re arguing for a perpetual motion engine, which doesn’t exist. That energy has to come from somewhere, and it’s increased drag. The aircraft are designed with a smooth, sleek, efficient body. A wind turbine is the opposite.

Solar to get planes in the air, please go read a book about energy densities and learn why that’s impossible.
Fine. We can charge the turbine on the ground with a fan or the engineer can spin it to get it up to speed in place of solar
