Simple Planes (NeoForge)
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.





Simple Planes adds four types of aircraft:
- Small plane - uses the least amount of fuel, flies the fastest, but can only fit one player.
- Large plane - uses up more fuel, but can fit two players and allows for large upgrades and can be used to drop payloads.
- Cargo plane - uses up a lot of fuel, but fits multiple players and large upgrades
- Helicopter - similar to large plane, but can be maneuvered with much more precision.
The aircraft needs to be powered to fly, you can choose one of the following engines:
- Furnace engine - powered with solid fuel
- Liquid engine - powered with liquid fuel (lava, immersive petroleum fuels and more)
- Electric engine - powered with forge energy/redstone flux You can turn the engine on and change its throttle with the up/down arrow keys
Aircraft can be upgraded with:
- Floaty bedding - allows the aircraft to float on water
- Booster - changes maximum engine throttle
- Armor - can be enchanted
- Folding upgrade - when leaving the aircraft you instantly get it as an item in your inventory
- Additional seats - allowing two more players to fly with you
- Shooter - can shoot arrows, fire charges and CGM ammo
- Banner - decorative
Planes specifically can be upgraded with:
- Solar panel - charges up the electric engine
Large planes and helicopters can be upgraded with:
- Chest - including iron chests
- Supply crate - could be dropped mid-flight
- TNT - could also be dropped mid-flight
- Jukebox
You can use any wood you like to craft an aircraft, including modded ones. You can make it fireproof by using the nether planks.
