Offering Namaz while travelling on a plane

Please guide us regarding offering Namaz on a plane. Should we offer Namaz on the plane, or after getting off of it? I have heard from some scholars that Namaz must be performed on the ground in order for it to be valid.

الجوابُ حامِدا ًو مُصلیِّا ً

The Namaz performed on a plane is valid, hence, it would be necessary for one to offer his Namaz if he is travelling on a plane. Therefore, (if while travelling on a plane, the time for Namaz occurs,) one would stand facing the Qibla and offer his Salah with Ruku and Sujood (bowing and prostrating). If one feels dizzy, he may sit and offer his Namaz.
And Allah knows best
