ok, this can be a bit confusing at first, you jump on the air plane and you are initially on auto pilot. once you reach the avalanche area, you get attacked by bats, dont panic, after a few second you gain control of the plane, your engine will explode.. don't worry just fly back to the landing platform to complete the quest
For those who haven't had much time with the vehicles, make sure you use your toolbar button that says 'Land Flying Machine" usually in the first button slot. You have to be inside the ring of crystals near the questgiver in Lakeside Landing.
This should complete the quest.

Description
It's about time we had planes up and running in this place. The professor's been asking me to check out a strange weather pattern coming from the northeast. Thing is, I'm going to need a co-pilot if we're going into uncharted territory. No way in hell I'm heading out there alone. What do you say, tough-guy? You might learn a thing or two. And once you learn to deal with the northern winds... you can pretty much fly anywhere.
