The airplane trick is so funny because I'm doing that also just to make him interested in his food. I even say "i love you and please eat" in a very very sweet voice so that he'll know I want him to eat. Sometimes I even pretended to eat his food out of the bowl and said "yum" so he'll eat.

haha! Are they really pick eaters?
