Unless that was a specially built propeller plane with break away wings, not only would shaving off the sides rip the fuselage open, but the propellers would shatter, penetrate the fuselage, and the shrapnel would tear everyone to shreds. Just like in a helicopter crash.

While I will see the movie, and it does look entertaining, I just cannot get over idiotic ideas like that thing with the plane. It's stupid. Just stupid.
