A plane does not mean that it works the same for all plays. The goal line plane isn't the same for an offensive player with possession as it is for a punt, for example. Other examples include the 10 yard free kick plane (Team B's restraining line) - the ball must not only cross the plane but also remain over there (or, at least, hit something over the line) for the kicking team to be eligible to recover the ball. I had a play years ago when the free kick cross the line, but didn't remain over there and was still in the air when Team A recovered it. Ruling -- Team B's ball.
