[The Boys] Is there any way Homelander could have saved the passengers on the plane?

I rewatched that scene, and for the record I’m not a physicist, but couldn’t he have flown against the bottom of the plane so it could have glided into a safe landing on the ocean? Sure he said that he can’t stand in air but I still feel like him flying against something would have some effect. Afterwards they could have just gotten a rescue team in there. Again, I’m not a physicist. It just seemed to me that Homelander was being lazy and just didn’t want to look for a solution.

I don't think that particular solution would work, mostly because he's not Superman.

Supes has a quirk of his power that he can lift an object by almost any point and it retains its structural stability.  Homelander doesn't have anything like that.   So if he gets below the plane and flies up with super strength, he most likely just pushes straight through the aircraft and makes it crash sooner.

Now, if he knew a bit about aircraft, and could pick the right spot to push, it's possible that could work, but he doesn't strike me as the kind of guy who knows a lot about a great many things that aren't immediately useful to himself.
