He is not an english speaker (Russian), and there is no good translation software out there to help him.

I agree, airplanes or other kinds of aerial transportation system would be great, with all the forests and lakes, it would make exploration much more feasible.

The best way I can think off would be to make us unable to interact with anything while in it (can't attack, open chests, be attacked), except maybe by ranged attacks (worms, or the spitters from MoCombat), if feasible.

If we go the airplane way, it would be nice to have a way to build airports and be able to tell the plane "bring me to airport X", and maybe have a way to make it act like very costly and end game transportation system.

I don't know how feasible this whole thing is, but I definitely would love to have that.

I believe, that making car with empty collision_mask would make it just fly, but yes, it wouldn't have the flying movement effect. and correct shadow positions.
