There are planes that can take off and land vertically, most notable of them is the Harrier jump jet build by BAE, there is also the V-22. The planes that can take off and land vertically are said to have Vertical TakeOff and Landing (VTOL) capabilities. This is usually achieved by vectoring the trust of the engines downward, so to create lift. After sufficient speed is gained, the aircraft continues flying as normal, with wings providing the lift and engines providing the forward trust.
