Well if you wish to be pedantic, perhaps I should have said "shell". The point being that the mass of the plane is concentrated in the solid parts, and not in the hollow parts which are filled with air. Momentum = mass X velocity. Where is the mass of the plane?

I'll ask my brother who has a degree in aerospace engineering.
