The rotation of the Earth does not directly affect fuel consumption, as the Earth's atmosphere moves with the Earth (if it didn't, we'd have 700 mile per hour winds constantly).

Also the Gravitational pull exerted by the earth on the plan will make the plane stay without a slip

Yes. However aircraft are much more effected by the weather and don't go very fast compared to artillery shells or satellites, so the coriolis is never a concern to pilots.

Does earth rotation anyway affects the aircraft flight?

Earth's rotation has no direect effect on the flight of aircraft. Aircraft fly in and through the atmosphere, and the atmosphere rotates with the earth. Technically, there is some effect though ... the rotation of high- and low-pressure weather systems is a consequence of the earth's rotation, and commercial aircraft have to be aware of the winds and weather when they plan their flight paths.
