Can a plane fly around the world in an hour?
In theory, any plane can fly around the world in an hour, regardless of size or speed. It depends on your definition of 'around the world'. No existing plane can do this at the equator. But any plane can fly along a line of latitude that has the same full length as the distance the plane can fly in one hour. The faster the plane, the farther from the poles its lines of latitude will be.
What happens as planes fly over the equator?
In the good old days, the pilot used to come on the cabin-com and say "Ahhh, folks, we just crossed the equator". But nowadays, nothing happens at all.
How do you cross the equator?

Do planes fly uphill from the poles to the equator?
No. Planes fly horizontally, but the concept of horizontal depends on the direction of gravity. Gravity pulls towards the center of the Earth, so "down" at the poles is the same as "down" at the equator, i.e. towards the center of the Earth.
How long is the flight from new york to equator?
It really depends. If you fly straight down to the equator, it would take 2-3 hours. However, if you decided to fly to the equator on the other side of the world, that might take just a little longer, probably in the 19-21 hour range depending on wind current and weather.
