Thus, they developed the morphing crystal they had found into a life support device that catered to their needs. The Lansinarians could not react quickly enough to changes in their environment. In time, it was separated from its family and was found by the Lansinarians, a blind subterranean race that lived underneath Antarctica. In their natural state, the Plane and its fellow members of the Ring resemble eggs made of semi transparent plastic. The being that would one day be called the Invisible Plane began life as an alien "morphing crystal" circling a distant planet with its "family", other morphing crystals who are collectively called the Ring. The origin of the Modern Age version of the Invisible Jet was chronicled during John Byrne's run of Wonder Woman with more detailed information chronicled in Wonder Woman Secret Files #1. The Plane's history has subsequently been revised as well. In the Post-Crisis version of the DC Universe, Wonder Woman can fly, regardless of wind currents, and so has little need for the Invisible Plane. It got along especially well with Steve Trevor. The Plane proved a good friend, eager to help his "mistress" and her loved ones in any way possible. Thanks to tinkering by gremlins, the Plane even developed intelligence and the power to talk.

At one point, Aphrodite granted the plane the power to fly faster than the speed of light for any interstellar voyages her champion might undertake. When Wonder Woman resumed super-powered, costumed operations in 1973, she continued to use the jet as before, but did glide on air currents for short distances. Wonder Woman continued to use the plane for super-speed, outer space, and multi-dimensional transport up until the un-powered era of Diana Prince. Though the Plane was depicted as semi-transparent for the reader's convenience, in-story dialogue indicated that it actually was completely invisible, or at least able to become so as the need arose. Prince's office she stripped out of her uniform at super speed and would bound to the plane. During the 1950s, the plane became a jet, and was often shown swooping over Lt. She uses the plane to fly into outer space, and frequently transports Etta Candy and the Holliday Girls, Steve Trevor, or others.


Shortly thereafter, the telepathic capacities of Wonder Woman's tiara allow her to summon it, often to hover or swoop by the War Department, and she would exit on a rope ladder. In a story made shortly after, it flies at 40 miles a second. Though never explicitly stated, the Plane is presumably stored there when not in use for the rest of the Pre-Crisis era. Prince and changes clothes in some of the earliest tales. Wonder Woman is seen storing the plane at an abandoned farm near Washington, D.C., in the barn she goes there as Lt. The Invisible Plane appeared in the very first comic stories, including All-Star Comics #8, where it is shown as being able to fly at over 2000 miles per hour (MPH) and to send out rainbow rays that penetrate the mist around Paradise Island, as well as landing stealthily and having a built-in radio. Initially, it was portrayed as being transparent.

The result of her innovation was an invisible plane that could fly at terrific speeds silently and not be detected by hostile forces, thus avoiding unpleasant conflict. She created it to be an improvement on her mother's planes which would be shot down in Man's World. The Invisible Plane was a creation of Diana's during her younger years on Paradise Island. Though this meant that she would rely on the invisible plane less frequently, she always had need of it. This had limitations, however for example, if there was no wind and the air was completely still she would be trapped on the ground or if dropped from a distance that she would helplessly fall out of control to the ground. She grew increasingly powerful through the Silver Age of comic books and beyond, acquiring the power to ride wind currents thus allowing her to imitate flight over short distance. The Pre-Crisis version of the invisible plane was a necessity because before the Crisis on Infinite Earths rewrote Wonder Woman's history-along with the histories of many other heroes-Wonder Woman simply could not fly. It was created by William Moulton Marston and first appeared in Sensation Comics #1 (January 1942). The Invisible Plane (commonly known as the Invisible Jet) is a plane appearing in DC Comics, commonly used by Wonder Woman as a mode of transport. Wonder Woman's invisible plane, clearly visible art by Ross Andru and Dick Giordano design in this illustration closely resembles the Gloster Javelin.
