Hello!

Try this in a LocalScript.

local WASD = {
	0,
	0,
	0,
	0
}

local function UpdatePosition()
	
end

local this = script.Parent.Parent

while task.wait() do
	local PlaneSeat = this:FindFirstChildOfClass("VehicleSeat")
	
	if PlaneSeat.Occupant ~= nil and game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayerFromCharacter(PlaneSeat.Occupant.Parent) then
		local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
		
		if mouse then
			this.Body.CFrame = CFrame.lookAt(this.Body.Position, mouse.Hit.Position)
		end
	end
end

Hope this helps!
