Airplane

The Airplane is one of the vehicles in the Total Drama series.

In Total Drama Island, the airplane was a yellow, single-propeller plane with red stripes running along the sides. It was poorly maintained, as it was dented, covered in grease and rust stains, one of its wheels was replaced by a ski, and its wings were held together by duct tape. However, despite to Chris' cheapness, it kept running, despite the obvious hazards. In Total Drama Action, a different plane that resembles a silver World War I aircraft was used instead.

Phobia Factor
It was first seen in Phobia Factor, when Owen and Izzy had to ride in it to conquer their fears of flying. In this episode, it was piloted by Chef Hatchet, who was dressed as a female flight attendant. He flew the plane wildly, performing loops and even flying upside-down. Despite this, both Gophers managed to conquer their fears, earning their team two points. The plane's wing fell right off the body shortly after it landed.

X-Treme Torture
It was later seen in X-Treme Torture, fully repaired. It slightly represents an X-wing from Star Wars, as Chris was wearing an outfit that was an obvious spoof of the outfits that X-wing pilots wore. It was first seen when Chris flew it low over the campgrounds, using the loud roar of its engine to rudely wake up all of the campers. It was later used when DJ and Trent had to jump out of it and skydive down to their respective targets on the beach below. Although Chris was seen to be inside the plane with them, Chef was seen to be the pilot this time. Thus, this is the only time in which the plane has two different pilots in the same episode.

Wawanakwa Gone Wild!
It was seen again in Wawanakwa Gone Wild!. In the scene where Izzy is going crazy with her tranquilizer gun, and shooting everything that she sees in an attempt to catch a deer for the challenge, one of her unfortunate victims was the plane. It was flying overhead when Izzy shot up at it and hit it in the left wing. This caused the plane to jerk, cough, and sputter, with a thin stream of smoke pluming from it, before it dipped down and crashed off-screen. Logically, this should be impossible, as the plane was not a living creature, and thus could not be affected by a tranquilizer dart. Also, this episode apparently depicts the plane as an innocent passerby plane, despite its every other appearance. It is unknown who was piloting it, as Chris was back at the campgrounds waiting for the other campers who had caught their animals, and Chef had already been similarly knocked out when Izzy fired her darts at him, hitting him in the butt three times.

Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island
Despite supposedly being destroyed in the previous episode, it was seen one last time in Total Drama, Drama, Drama, Drama Island. Justin was flying it after he convinced Chef to give him the keys to the plane, instead offering an autographed picture of himself. After this, Justin jumps out and parachutes down to Lindsay, Beth, and Ezekiel, who had the million dollar case at the time. Once he did this, the now-pilotless plane spirals out of control, in the process crashing through the support beams for the high diving board over the pool of green jell-o (which had beenset up for Courtney in Phobia Factor). At that time, Geoff, Bridgette, Katie, Sadie, LeShawna, Courtney, Cody, DJ, Tyler, and Owen all on it. This caused the diving board to fall off and, subsequently, set off a chain of events that resulted in five of them qualifying for Total Drama Action, and the other five not. After smashing through the suppport beams, it continued on and flew right into the woods. It then was supposedly destroyed for good.

Full Metal Drama
Another plane appears in the first challenge. The contestants are forced to jump out of a plane to reenact a World War I scenario, but by the time they had all jumped, they realized the plane never even took off. However, this is a different plane then the old yellow one in Total Drama Island

Get a Clue
Courtney referenced the plane in this episode, although it did not appear. She recalled it to have been fake in Full Metal Drama, and she compared it to the train that they were currently in.
