A space rocket will carry it's own oxygen, or some other gas, to burn to power the vehicle. Aeroplane's that fly in Earth's atmosphere normally use a jet engine, that takes in air, mixes it with fuel and burns it for propulsion. Also a rocket ship needs a good navigation system. An aeroplane can use a compass and Global Positioning Satellites. A compass and GPS are not going to be much good in outer space. Especially if the rocket ship leaves Earth orbit.
