	Plane (mathematics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In mathematics, a plane is a fundamental two-dimensional object.
		The topological plane, or its equivalent the open disc, is the basic topological neighbourhood used to construct surfaces (or 2-manifolds) classified in low-dimensional topology.
		The topological plane is the natural context for the branch of graph theory that deals with planar graphs, and results such as the four color theorem.

	AllRefer.com - plane (Mathematics) - Encyclopedia
		An example of a plane, or more exactly of a bounded portion of a plane, is the surface forming one face, or side, of a cube.
		A plane is determined, or defined, by any of the following: (1) three points not in a straight line; (2) a straight line and a point not on the line; (3) two intersecting lines; or (4) two parallel lines.
		For a given plane in space, a line can either lie outside and parallel to it, intersect the plane in a single point, or lie entirely in the plane; if more than one point of a straight line lies in the plane, then the entire line must lie in the plane.

		A rocket-powered aircraft or rocket plane is an aircraft that uses a rocket for propulsion, sometimes in addition to jet engines.
		The only rocket plane ever to be mass-produced was the Messerschmitt Me 163 in 1944, one of several German World War II attempts at rocket-powered aircraft.
		The first truly successful rocket plane was the North American X-15, which was used for several years and eventually broke Mach 6.0.

		The Oriental Plane is first mentioned, among English writers, by William Turner, "the father of English botany," in his "Herbal," printed at Cologne in 1568; and in 1596 John Gerard had it growing in his garden in Holborn, the history of his specimen being subsequently given by him in his "Herball" (1597), p.
		No Planes are known to the east of Kashmir, though, on the analogy of the distribution of tulip-trees--if the theory of the eastward retreat of the European flora of Miocene times towards America be well founded--we might expect them to occur in China or Japan.
		To the student of philosophy the Plane must always be associated with the groves of the Academe, in which walked the earliest of the peripatetic philosophers.

	Plane
		The word 'Plane' is derived from the old Greek term, which refers to the broad leaf on the tree.
		The London Plane is a tall handsome tree with unusual bark, which peels off in large plates revealing patches of creamy white; deeply palmately lobed leaves and spiky globular fruits, which hang in threes or fours on a single stalk.
		This is a picture of the famous Plane tree of Hippocrates which stands in front of the ancient Castle of the Knights, at the centre of Kos town on the Greek island of Kos.

		Older planes are particularly susceptible to metal fatigue, caused by the gradual weakening of metal as it bends and twists during years of use.
		The plane, a C-130 propeller plane that had been converted for use by the Forest Service, was built in 1957.
		Planes that fly in or near saltwater are more likely to suffer from metal corrosion.

	Inclined Plane [encyclopedia] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		An inclined plane is a ramp that reduces the force necessary to overcome the force of gravity when changing the elevation of mass in a gravitational field.
		The ramp or inclined plane was useful in building early stone edifices, in roads and aquaducts, and military assault of fortified positions.
		Detailed understanding of inclined planes and their use helped lead to the understanding of how vector quantities such as forces can be usefully decomposed and manipulated mathematically.

	Invariable Plane · Astrological definition of Invariable Plane · Astrology Encyclopedia
		The Solar System possesses two fixed planes: that of the Solar Equator; and the Invariable plane - a central plane of the Solar System discovered by Laplace, which, passing through its center of gravity at a mean inclination of about 1°35' to the Ecliptic, is independent of the mutual perturbations of the planets.
		As a result of this residue, the nodical line at which the orbit plane of each planet intersects the invariable plane, is displaced backward, in a precessional motion of the whole orbit plane.
		The period of the orbital precession of the Ecliptic on the Invariable Plane is indeterminate, since the minimum inclination of the Ecliptic to that plane is 0°0'0".

		The selection of different planes is an expansive and diverse grouping.

	Making a LA plane? - Sawmill Creek
		The key to success is a sharp iron and a reasonably well tuned bench plane, but if you are new to handplanes, I'd start with a good quality bench plane instead of a block plane, since you can get a bit more mileage out of it over a LA block plane.
		Making LA wood planes is extremely difficult, this is why I mention that you may just want to make a regular bench plane instead if you aren't interested in buying a metal plane.
		The plane body has a metal thread insert into which the bolt is screwed to hold the blade down.
