Because as soon as he begins to lift the plane the superstructure would not withstand the weight of the plane distributed over the small area of Superman's hands. The only effect would be him pushing his hands through the hull. [img]graemlins/saywhat.gif[/img] Worst case scenario--he lifts the plane, which subsequently breaks into two pieces. This is why Superman really isn't strong, but employs a modified form of telekinesis which effects only objects he can touch. [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]
