Beatrix was able to contain her reaction of what the hell drug is this guy on to just a mere blinking of her eyes. Did it look like a turkey? Zoro obviously was a few fries short of a Happy Meal.

"An aircraft is a transport conveyance, usually for passengers these days, that flies in the air." She thought about Zoro's questions and his familiarity with seacrafts. "It doesn't look like a turkey, but an airplane does have wings. But they don't flap," she added on.

How to explain... "Hmm... Think of your sloop and make it metal. Then instead of there being sails, there were two rigid, very large metal wings on it, one sticking out of each side perpendicular to the body of the sloop. Instead of sails to move the ship through the air, it has large engines that generate enough energy and wind to raise the ship up into the air and moving forward as it rides the air currents like a bird does."

The Bride hoped she'd dumbed the explanation down enough that Zoro might start to understand.
