History
The Eleventh Doctor was due for a lesson in flying a bi-plane in 1911. However, it may have in fact been a knitting lesson. (TV: The Impossible Astronaut)
In 1941, Edwin Bracewell used gravity bubbles on modified Spitfires, sending them into space. There they disabled the Dalek Flying Saucer's transmitter. (TV: Victory of the Daleks)
In 1964, a light aircraft nearly collided with the TARDIS, which had materialised in mid-air over Alaska. (AUDIO: The Land of the Dead)
The same year, a plane which left New York City with a crew of eleven and hundreds of passengers landed in London with no-one aboard, not even the pilot. The matter was investigated by Professor Rachel Jensen of the Intrusion Countermeasures Group. (AUDIO: State of Emergency)
In 1966, Chameleon Tours operated select flights from Gatwick Airport. They kidnapped passengers, taking them to a space station, and putting them in suspended animation whilst miniaturised. They were then replaced by Chameleons. (TV: The Faceless Ones)
In the 1970s, UNIT deployed an RAF air strike that destroyed the Krynoid at Chase Mansion. (TV: The Seeds of Doom)
In 1982, two Concordes, Golf Victor Foxtrot and Golf Alpha Charlie, were taken 140 million years into the past when they flew into a time corridor. (TV: Time-Flight)
In 2007, the Sky Gypsy came through the Cardiff Space-Time Rift. It carried Diane Holmes, John Ellis, and Emma-Louise Cowell. Diane attempted to return through it by flying again in the same conditions. (TV: Out of Time)
